Yes I have an old working doublehose regulator , and a 1952 vintage steel tank and an old wet suit. Although I don't use this often I will take the old kit out a few times in shallow waters for a traditional dive something like taking the '57 chevy for a spin on a Sunday.

Very neat finds! I like the bell and the portal with the glass.

The porthole is from a sunken oil tanker ,the bell I found in a part of Halifax Harbor known at the North West Arm . Now it is the home of the area's wealthy, but 100 years ago it had a different uses, rowing clubs and small business like a marine scrapyard there is no sign of it on shore, but underwater there are still remains like that little bell, a few nice bottles and some neat old ship's deadeyes . It was a favorite fall and winter divesite ...
