Because it is not my first post on how to keep their money. As I mentioned before, in the diving because of all product or device be “exclusively” for diving it becomes until 3 or more times more expensive than anything else.
Proof of this is the famous cable protector for the hose regulator, only because of it being for diving it becomes much more expensive than a protector of cables for computer you can use a good for your regulator…
Of course, I am not here supporting you buy things of low quality, because you must be very sure and help with this wanting to be, it is always good to remember that you will be X m below the water below and there nothing can leave wrong . So if you have money available, preferably in buying your equipment specifically for diving, now if you are without money, but needs to continue the course, look very well all that you can use to your benefit so you continue the course and not stop for lack of money. PLanejar even save here to spend more there, in other equipment needed most… And always, always talk to your instructor before, submit their ideas and see what he thinks and he can help you.
Well, where I am speaking today on the spool… the spool normal and that there is more humble to use advanced in diving, is made of hard plastic, black and with 45 meters of nylon line (not the same fishing) coiled it in a tip mosquetão insurance. On average, it costs around $ 108, well… There is something you find places for 80 or 90 $
But in my case, when I am without money to buy two of these carretilhas (for my wife and I) then end up studying possibilities and arrive in the following manner:
In a store of materials to sew, my wife has a FREE spool of plastic, hard, black slightly larger than what I described above…. In a shop of construction I found the line of nylon, bought a piece, tested the buoyancy to see if it was as neutral as I wanted to, remember to buy more white and a thickness that can be equal to spool normal. Purchased 50m, paid some $ 15 or 17. Purchased an mosquetão aluminum by 9 $ and ready, I made my spool to be used in the next dive. As I mentioned, this is only because I am spool without money, as soon as I finish the course I buy a whole aluminium and everything else, but it is not because at the moment I can not buy that I will stop my course….
Practical, no? Even today put photos of the spool….
