## How to Make a Scuba Diving Helmet

### Introduction

Scuba diving helmets are an essential piece of equipment for divers who want to explore the underwater world. They provide divers with a way to breathe underwater and protect their heads from the elements. While scuba diving helmets can be purchased from a variety of retailers, they can also be made at home with a few simple materials.

### Materials

A large, clear plastic bottle
A pair of scissors
A utility knife
A hot glue gun
A piece of rubber tubing
A pair of goggles
A weight belt

### Instructions

1. Cut the bottom off of the plastic bottle. Use the scissors to cut around the bottom of the bottle, about 1 inch from the edge.
2. Cut a hole in the top of the bottle for the goggles. Use the utility knife to cut a hole in the top of the bottle, about 2 inches in diameter. The hole should be large enough for the goggles to fit through.
3. Glue the goggles to the top of the bottle. Use the hot glue gun to glue the goggles to the top of the bottle. Make sure that the goggles are securely attached.
4. Cut a hole in the side of the bottle for the breathing tube. Use the utility knife to cut a hole in the side of the bottle, about 1 inch in diameter. The hole should be large enough for the breathing tube to fit through.
5. Insert the breathing tube into the hole in the bottle. Insert the breathing tube into the hole in the bottle and tighten the nut on the end of the tube.
6. Attach the weight belt to the bottle. Attach the weight belt to the bottle to keep it from floating away.
7. Test the helmet. Put on the helmet and submerge it in water. Make sure that there are no leaks and that you can breathe easily through the breathing tube.
