andy Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 Yeah it sounds good to me. The fella I spoke with at Wairau reckons they keep a stock of cylinders so its pay and swap as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaN Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Supa Gas will fill owner bottles, you just need to own a bottle. They will not fill BOC gas bottles (edit) didnt know about the turn around time, thats BS. When I want gas, I want it freaking NOW. - I find BOC expensive and got a guy that welds every few days or so, and then sometimes not for weeks I think owner bottles is the way to go for me. D size bottles are about right for me. Boc charge me $16 a month, $200 a year (appx) for a D size bottle of argo-shield. I really need two different bottle, one Argo-shield, one pure argon (for alloy), so yeah, I really need to own two bottles. I'd rather not have to deal with BOC, they just put their prices up again, and I'm finding it more and more expensive to fill bottles. I also find that the last 200psi of the bottle costs me at least $48 in rental charges because I often dont do a bigger job and converse the last little bit for quite a while because a fill is now $86 for a D size. In short, if you've got the cash, buy the bottle and get supa gas to fill it. I would if I had in a heart beat. Tig welders, .. see EZI-Tools. imho. or the tool shed in hamilton. both on tardme, both cheaper in shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
