Introduction
So having just got back from Malta, I unpacked my bags and I had ALL, seriously ALL the dive gear scattered across my living room. Unfortunately it couldn't stay like that, as much as my life revolves around diving I do need it out the way so I can do other things like watch TV, iron and generally live.
With my dive gear in the house that meant that the garage was half empty - an ideal time to tidy it up. Armed with a claw hammer I started going around my garage pulling out all the random rusty nails hammered in everywhere. With a small pile of nails it was time to get to work.
The result
The dream was to get all my dive gear neatly hung up so that I could get at it more easily and I thought it would probably do the gear a favour too. So this is what I managed:
 |
| Front to back |
 |
| Back to front |
Whilst doing all of this, I went through every box of dive gear and I made a startling discovery. When I first got into tech diving, all the gear needs bolt-snaps on it in some form, so every time I went diving I would buy one. Eventually I just got in the habit of buying them and then this happens:
I managed to find a total of 9, that's NINE bolt snaps that are completely surplus to requirements!!! I also then found another one in my dry suit pocket too - so that's 10 bolt-snaps!! No wonder I'm skint - at about £10 each that's about £100 tied up in stainless steel right there!!
