Scuba Stuff
- For those of you into nitrox or trimix diving,
I've created a couple of templates (in Word 97 format) for log book pages - feel free to
use and/or alter them to suit your needs. Experience Page, Log Book Page. Get yourself an A5 ring binder, print one experience
page followed by 12 log book pages. Turn the paper over and put it back in the printer.
Print 13 log book pages then fold the 13 pages into an A5 booklet and put them in a
binder. Voila, a 25-dive log book section complete with summary sheets.
