There is no need for a pretty tank though.. they all work the same. Just
spend as little as you can is the main thing..

Have you ever seen anyone else on this news group report problems with a
buzzy solenoid? I'd sure like to find a fix for that. Just about the time
I muster the energy to address the problem, the darn thing starts working
perfectly.. and I once again go into procrastination mode. -Bruce

my shiny new aluminum CO2 tank wound up being exchanged for a
filled but ugly steel tank. So, I wish I had known NOT to buy a fancy,

looking tank. There is no point. You will probably have to exchange it
for
a very used but filled steel tank when you run out of CO2. The welding
supply company that I get CO2 from sells tanks for about 50 bucks.

I've heard that complaint from others. I haven't taken the leap to "real"
CO2 yet, but I have it on authority that you can get your tanks filled or
exchanged at liquor outlets and distributors. Apparently CO2 tanks
engaged
in the hospitality industry receive somewhat gentler treatment.
