Hi!

First of all, I would like to tell you to obtain expert adult supervision on this project if you wish to actually build the apparatus. I found a pretty nice "how to" article written by a British author (the article is 50 years old but details many points you'll want to consider) on the subject but I must raise the "don't try this at home" warning flag before I show you the link.

I quote:

Before going on with the details of the home-made aqualung it would be as well to point out that, simple as this equipment is, in the wrong hands, or in inexperienced hands, it could be a source of serious trouble.

That said, here is the link (enjoy and be safe):
