Re: Collection bag question

FreediveCA... Damn. That's a really good idea. I was really stuck on the idea of a bag, but giving it some thought, this sounds like a perfect collection can.

- 4"dia schedule 40 pipe between 10-12inches long
- capped on both ends, at least one with a clean-out (screw cap), in case something gets stuck somewhere.
- round hole, about 3" wide, drilled near the "top" so I can chuck stuff in it like a wastebasket.
- a bolt through the bottom end cap for ballast and some manner of small, hard float under the top cap to make it stand up underwater like a weeble wobble.
- a paracord loop through the top cap for float line attachment and slinging over my shoulder on the walk back.
- a number of 1/4 holes for draining water.

I'm intent on keeping it a bit wide because now and again I find pliers or something else with some size to it and when I put that crap in my sleeve, I suffer. (cold water).

That's a really good idea, thanks man!

Mike
