Do it yourself scuba diving


Fans of diving, scuba diving and hunting will surely like the idea of ​​making their own scuba diving, which this video review is dedicated to.

We advise you to start by viewing the author’s footage



So we need:
- pump action sprayer;
- flexible plastic hose;
- an underwater tube for diving;
- capacity.

According to the author, such sprayers are used in horticulture, so it will be easier to find them in specialized stores for gardeners. We also note that when choosing a container, one should not dwell on large bottles, since they will strongly pull up.
First you need to remove the limiter, which is installed in the sprayer. On the model that the author uses, the limiter is located on the edge, so it is enough to cut it with a hacksaw. This is necessary so that more air comes out of the sprayer.

Next, pull the hose onto the top of the sprayer, carefully sealing it with hot glue or silicone.

We attach a cap from a plastic bottle to the bottom of the underwater tube, on which we pre-drill a hole along the diameter of the hose.

We insert a hose into the hole and also carefully glue it with glue, taking care of the tightness of the structure.

Easy scuba diving is ready.


It works according to the following principle. We connect the bottle to the pump sprayer and fill it with air. A 330 ml bottle is filled with air in about 50 strokes. So much air is enough for 4 full breaths. If you use a larger container, take care of the load, as a bottle filled with air will prevent it from being under water. In order to extract air from the bottle, just press the appropriate button on the sprayer.

This is not scuba gear. And not even a toy. This is an attempt by a teenage student who knows how to dive and swim, try (understand) how to dive. Mom, you ruin the baby. The appearance of simplicity, and simplicity, as you know, is worse than theft. When trying to dive, you need to understand that you can not come up ....
honestly, I thought it was possible to use it for spearfishing, in which the diver usually dives with one breath to a depth of 3-4 meters (or even more) so that you can take 3-4 more breaths directly under water. Normally so ... but it turns out to be some kind of injury ...
Are you talking about depths greater than 2–3 meters? Then, perhaps .... But here, of course, a toy for diving in a river "in nature" is described. Only morons will climb into this with depth - this, I think, is clear to everyone .... Again, what prevents breathing out, or I don’t understand something?
Unfortunately, this homemade product is deadly !!!
Inhaling at a depth, without a subsequent exhalation, will lead to pulmonary barotrauma.
NEVER! Do not attempt to use diving / diving equipment without training.
Well, or at least read a book about what pressure is under water and barotrauma of the lungs.
Weight in grams = capacity in milliliters.
It is good that the author of the work guessed how to make scuba gear. But, sorry, for 4 breaths - what is this? Kids in a shallow paddling pool indulge. Say: take a larger container. But this is despite the weight of the diver. A large tank (I mean from light materials) will obviously begin to push a person out of the water. I put a plus, but it's more a toy.
Ingenious. ingeniously, simply, however, by this kind of invention, diving kicks off. In just four breaths, the diver will have time to examine. How to calculate the correct capacity of a PET bottle, dancing on the weight of the scuba diver, so that the air does not resist immersion? Something like the formula should be.
To be honest, I would never dare to do scuba diving with my own hands. No, you can conduct some experiment, but you can’t use the equipment for practical purposes. Or, this home-made scuba gear must be examined by a professional who thoroughly understands the design and mechanisms of this thing. Then you can use it.
For the first time I hear that you can do scuba diving at home. It is especially pleasing that absolutely anyone can carry out this invention, you just have to be smart and all your skills to do the work carefully. It was surprising that the presented scuba gear does not require any special materials and devices. Indeed, you can do everything yourself.
With the minimum “balloon” capacity (330 ml) of a homemade scuba gear, everything is clear, but what is the maximum capacity at which the device can still be used?
My child has been asking for scuba gear for a month now, but I didn’t know that it can be done at home! It’s so good that I came to your lesson! Now in the evening we’ll start manufacturing this wonderful device. And not expensive at all.
And what kind of cargo can be attached to the bottle so that it does not float, can someone tell me more experienced? And what weight should it be?
