Spares and tool kits - what do you carry?

[purple vonny]

As you know Dave, I just stand in the car park and ask the guy in the car next to mine if he has any tools.

Since then I have remembered to pack ALL my allen keys. I usually have a mask strap, silicone, o rings and some money to run to the dive shop for things to fix my kit.

Ah! Good point. The case did come with a small tube!




Is that what I know of as a Jubilee clip? I don't recognise the term 'piston' clip



Bah! I'm getting a reputation around here (you're quite right though )

From the product description: High performance strength and adhesion characteristics are excellent for coordinating repairs, color-coding materials and crafting applications



Are they the ones where a...ahem...scantily clad female is used as the image? I guess it's more exciting and eye-catching than a picture of an 'O' ring! Are they any good? The 'O' rings I mean, not the female...

That was the place haven't had to use one, but I reckon an o ring is an o ring. I might be wrong and they could be shite though, look and feel like all the others I've seen though.
