Subject: Wreck gear rigging
     Wreckers,
     Daniel Fountain noticed it was quiet on this list, and me for one
     think that's not a good idea. I certainly want to learn something
     here.
     So  :  Who is taking the beat and will explain how to rig for wreck
     diving.  No I'm not asking for a Hogartian litany, I don't oppose to
     that but want to now where you guys leave your crowbar, your chisel,
     your hamer and lifting bags.(I normally take 2 off 100 kg bags).

     I'm diving a trilaminaat dry suit and have my chisel in a knife holder
     strapped on my upper leg. The hamer is hooked to my weight belt as is
     my crowbar. But that is no ideal place. Sometimes I see it strapped
     near the Cylinder but than you need the help of your buddy to reach it
     and my intention is ALWAYS to be self-reliant.
     Who has a good suggestion ? (Best should be out of side and in reach)
     One of the lifting bags is rolled around a belt and I wear it around
     my waist. This way the bag is on my back and I can reach it easaly
     unlocking the buckle on my waist. There are no loose ends to that belt
     so it can not been mistaken by the weight belt.

     Who care to comment to the above ?

     Rob de Groot
