Mini Empty CO2 Gas Cylinder wanted
big_wasa - 7/12/09 at 09:16 PM

As title I am after one of the small disposable cylinders, about 1L in size and the type you get from halfords / machine mart ect.

Any one close to Spalding Lincs got one or two they want rid of ?

Thanks in advance

aarrgghh

Just thrown two away, they were in my yard for ages!

If you're stuck I've around 10 of them up here. Too good to just chuck.

doing some welding for my mate during the week, knowing my luck, i'll have one spare then lol

what can you do with them when they're empty?

and what would happen if you just breathed on a weld? is there enough CO2 and other inert gasses?

I used to refill them with a hundred bar of nitrogen - bit dodgy but it worked for me.

Must admit I was a bit nervous the first time in case it went pop.

A budget swirl pot if any one has one.

So it isn'y just me who has thought about this seems like a very sensible plan!
I also thought about a fire extinguisher (I can get out of date ones sometimes) but they have a funny plastic coating inside, which may be a very bad thing......

Yeh I thought about the above but feel the co2 bottle will be better.
