I exchanged for a new oxygen tank this year. Fresh paint, shiny brass, and even new rubber bands so the tanks don't clang together. Gives me the same feeling when I *win* a dollar after spending two

I dunno. Nicest tank I've ever seen but not worth doing a forensic investigation. What we're talking about is the luck of the draw, you expect a good valve and anything else is a plus. What I really

I've always been under the impression that it isn't a good idea to lay tanks down for transit. I've never been refused service when exchanging, but I've been offered safety tips from time to time. I

One comment: I use one of those generic stands and find it tough to rotate a Ford 351. But I just use a longer bar. The friction in the head keeps the engine in place once you've positioned it. The p

They say soda turns to dust on impact. So you don't get media in every nook and cranny. Where's the dust gonna go? I snag a certain amount with my Ionic Breeze but it's still pretty dusty around here

Proper safety practice says someone should always be around in case. A cell phone or one of those "I've fallen and I can't get up" thingies might work if you're still conscious. If you're in no cond
