Subject: Re[2]: wreck diving tools

          I've discovered an excellent method to avoid losing
          my expensive tool gear (like titanium crowbars and platinum
          wrenches).

          I spot wield one end of a three foot length of heavy
          stainless steel chain to the tool item and then spot wield
          the other end of the chain to the right, waist d-ring.  Each
          of my expensive tools has an individual chain, which I then
          wrap tightly around the tool item and then bungee
          lengthwise to my right leg.

          This system gives me easy access without fear of loss of my
          investment.  To deal with the the new weight distribution
          and achieve balance, I like to strap an OMS 45 to my left
          leg (which can I fill with argon as a backup deco gas,
          based on tables I cut with my new beta test version of
          "Deco-boy" decompression software).

          Try this method out, it works great for me.

          P.S.  This also works with larger, more powerful pneumatic
          tools, only I use a 121 on the left leg due to the increased
          tool weight.
