Filling 02/Acetylene tanks

[big gear head]

When mine are empty I'm buying the small tanks. Same goes for the argon tank on my TIG welder. I've spent enough on the lease to have bought one. I bought a CO2 tank for my MIG years ago.

I'm thinking that's the route I'm going to take at some point. I bought a tank for my MIG about 8 or 9 years ago. I'm just having a hard time justifying buying new tanks when the ones I have are perfectly good. Some moron just decided it would be "safer" if people were made to spend more... Supposedly this is about tracking who has bulk gas after 9/11. Like people planning to use them for nefarious purposes wouldn't steal them from a supplier's yard anyway.
