Hi Prometheus

I also live a long way from the ocean, but not far from the lakes,
there are all kinds of people that like to dive or sail and have wet/
dry suits.
There is a good chance you have a sporting store that carries the
suits, or a place that gives lessons for scuba divers, and they in
turn might know some persons that are active in the sport, connections
connections.
I got one from my sons FIL, he apparently hasn't (like many of
us ;-))), the same figure as he had some years ago, anyway he asked if
I had any interest in it (the suit), as they were moving out west and
didn't want to take it along, so now I have a complete suit missing
some small parts that have now found a new use, it also is a dandy
seal on the vacuum chuck.

Have fun and take care

If you can find a place that makes wet/dry diving suits, they will
usually sell neoprene remanents and neoprene makes a great backing
for velcro and sticks well with a contact adhesive.

Not a bad suggestion, but I live about as far away from an ocean as
anyone can. Probably not a lot of diving suits around, though I
confess I've never really looked!




I have to post this for my good wife who wonders why I keep so much
'junk'.
