[TheForge] report on one small compressed air portabletankexperience

[Walter Mullett]

In college and newly wed, I couldn't afford much and tires were always a
problem with both of our cars.  A compressor was out of the question but I
could afford a portable tank.  That was one of the best buys I ever made.
Just a trip to the local station for a "free" air fill up and I'd be able to
get a car home where I could work on it.  I even used it to do airbrush
artwork.  One tank would last a couple of hours.

Jeff, that's a pretty good deal. The whole setup costs $29.95 for a UWL,
OSHA, SAMMI, AISE, ACGA, SAE approved, new, shiny red air tank with a filler
valve, air chuck, air line, pressure gage, etc. But what the hell, u like to
make things and had fun....Oh, and Welding Help $.05, but for a friend, a
10% discount.
