I need to get a cordless drill and a couple of spare batteries through a short sump about 4m long and 1.5m deep. Any suggestions for a suitable container?
exsumper said:Agree with Pitlamp about folded inner tubes/Carbide pigs. Used them on many occasions when diving to Chamber 22 in Wookey Hole Cave. Was extremely surprised to find that they remained dry to at least -22m depth. Although Iwould say that a thinner wall thickness made for an easier seal.
With regard to Daren Drums. There is a dive report in the Somerset sump index of an attempt to take a Daren Drum through to Chamber 20. It imploded at -10m apparently.
