Madeinusa, after the lengthy thread on brazing, i decided to buy a Nitrogen Purge & Blow Gun kit. Then i bought a nitrogen tank so I could screw the Nitrogen Purge kit into something. Put it together at my workbench this evening and guess what? The dam tank was empty!!! Hehehehe bwa hahahahaha ROLMAO. :D

I always open my tanks at the distributor where i buy them but in this case the regulator was brand new and in the box so i waited till i got home and ate supper. Was the tank suppose to have a plug in it because it didnt. And it was suppose to be 4000psi Full. Bought it at Gem Aire.

That was a good laugh! :p

Does anyone actually fill to 4000 PSI?

Ours or normally around 2400 PSI.

No plugs, but a top cover is a MUST.

Have you got one of them little tanks yet?

They are really handy. Leave the 88 in the truck and fill the little tank. Saves on the heavy carrying. :)

Only carry the 40 if there is a long roof job ahead.

I just have the little acetylene tank, I use it for a spare in case my B-tank runs out.

I have a tank tote for my nitrogen tank, I'm strong like an OX so it don't bother me to carry it. :D

Winston-Salem NC. I'd have rate them pretty good ole boys but not above making some mistakes and not slow to take care of a mistake.

I Love new tools

We use the Roanoke branch. They are pretty descent guys to work with. Now if they could only get our equipment pricing sheet right.
