Thanks diggerdave,

I noticed that the top had jagged glass so I was unsure if it was a break or poor mold conditions.

The insulator is the bottom half of a 2 piece. The bottom is the CD 190 and the top is a CD 191. In that condition - worth a couple bucks, say $2-5. Now if it was colored, then....

Froze your buns off?? Comeon River diver, I've been diving for a month now, and in a wet suit. Ok, sorry to say, my suggestion? More blubber ;) keeps you warm lol

Seriously, 40 degrees is about my limit, in a wet suit. You gotta be safe if you feel yourself getting cold. The bigger worry for me is exhaustion. I gotta get a suit that isn't so tight around the chest.
Glad to see you're out diving. Glad you got some good glass.
I'll be in the water tomorrow (Tues). Wish me luck

When I had my waverunner,I used to jump the river falls like a Salmon at ice-out.A good blast to the face was always a shocker!Riding down the river on the ice flow was fun too.I would love to be able to afford a diving setup.Keep the stories coming and I love that Amber case Gin!

Cool. Thanks for posting. I just got my first tanks in on Sunday (and I was mildly cold). I have lost a flag in that same way. Now I zip-tye it on so it can't come out.
