Title: Build your own bubbler
Post by ClusterChuck on Aug 18^th, 2004, 1:21am

I answered Lizzie2, in another thread, with this, to help her with her problem. I was asked by two family members to post it as its own thread, in case anyone missed it. So here it is.

I hope it helps some of you out.

Before I got an "official" bubbler, I made my own. The way I did it was with an empty mayonaise or peanut butter jar, a bungee cord and some silicone glue. A plastic lid works best.

Drill two holes, just large enough for your air hose to fit through, in the lid, at two opposite sides of the top.

Strap the jar to your tank, with the bungee cord. Cut your hose, long enough so that it goes from the regulator to the bottom of the jar, plus a little more. Push it through one of the holes in the lid.

Take the other part of the hose that you cut off, and put it in the other hole in the lid, just far enough to go through the lid.

Seal around both hoses with the silicone glue. Let it dry.

Now file the jar about one third full. I add ice cubes to mine, if I am capable at that time, so that it cools the air, too. It sometimes helps to make the O₂ work faster.

You now have a working bubbler.

Chuck

Water bongs work good too. ;)
