    I do wish I had a Mark 5 but my Savoie Demand is a rare hat. I believe only 50 made.

    Hi: I guess my Com Hat 1 is kind of a rare one too. Aside from the leaky liner the rest of the hat is in excellent shape (The liner was liquid filled).

    Of course you cant have the Com Hat 1 without having the Com Mask 1 to go with it.

    a friend would like to know if anyone ever heard of the Drager ccbs rebreather set actually being used commercially? I only ever saw the Gas Services/SLS rebreather bailout system.

    kinda a collector, I used #'s 03 and have Savoie's #'s 94, and Last 1, and the Décor demand neck dam used for gas work, and collecting.

    I've made templates for the neck dam and headliner with install instruction's from Joe.

    As a young hand sat in Joe & Joyce's kitchen learning how to maintain my helmet and life as an oilfield diver in the 1970's.

    Retired 74 year old freelance "mud diver",  Knocked out of diving by medical problems I became an environmental janitor in 2001, living almost off the grid in North Idaho. I'd like to sell off a bunch of old stuff....helmets, hand pumps, lights, underwater tools and my personal reference library of 17 boxes of diving and nautical books (by the box only) .  Have several helmet/hand pump combos and some nice art work.  Any interest out there?
