Scuba Tools/Peter Built is closing.

For those of you who have ever had a desire to work on your own gear, I'd suggest looking at their website to see if there is anything you might need or want.

As I mentioned in another post, their tools are 2nd to none.

That's the bad news.

The good news (potentially) is that they sold the domain name (Scubatools.com) to someone who intends to offer for sale the tools again. This is a different individual, but he bought 1 of everything from them & told them his plan is to reproduce everything. I guess time will tell.

He is supposed to take over their website April 1st. So hopefully, he'll have the same or at least close to the same quality.

Still not up but I hope it will be soon. He had some great tools, in fact this guy was as far as I know one of the best ScubaPro techs around. He had a background you'd have to see to believe.

Looking forwards to the new owners producing stuff.

I sent them an email a few weeks ago looking for some stuff and it took about a week but he got back to me but they (Bruce and Joan) did send me 2 .pdf files. One is an orderform and the other an inventory form. He said that the site should be up mid May. Attached are the two .pdf files that he sent to me...
