Does anyone have any DIY stuff that they've built for diving? I'm not
necessarily cheap, but I enjoy making things myself, and I'm looking
for ideas. I'm not talking about regs or tanks or computers; more like
bouys, carts, reels, etc.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

I built my "softweights", 26lbs of lead shot from a gun shop, ended up costing me less than $1/lb.

Just make sure you don't use a black one...obviously.
