TOY: RE: Power Tank

["CARR, ROBERT ET1" <CARR@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I made one.  "Leased" a bottle from AirGas.  I didn't feel like searching
too much, so I just picked it up from them for $200.  I found a regulator
for $15 at a used tool store.  (that's what actually got me started on the
project.)  I had to adapt it for CO2.  Then I put on a 50ft hose and made a
quadraflate, all for less than $300.  If you search a bit, you could find a
cheaper bottle  (i.e. free.)  The good thing about the AirGas bottle, just
disconnect everything, drop it off and walk away with a full one for $8.

Anybody made there own power tank.
This seems like it would be easy.

You can buy or rent a small CO2 tank.
You can rent one around here for 10 
dollars a month and 5 dollars a refill.


Then all you need is a regulator and 
the correct fittings to go to an air 
hose.  Would only cost $50 dollars or so.

Sound like a good idea?
