Hi all
does anyone have a refillable co2 bottle they are looking to part with nearby, or suggest somewhere to get one from.
i'm getting abit fed up (and broke!) with the small disposable ones u can get. they don't last five minutes!
cheers

If Alfreton's not too far or Pinxton there are places like Welduk and there's one on the industrial estate near Metmachex, Somercotes can't remember his name but he sells bottles or swaps for a refill. I keep one for a spare in case I run out of the good stuff.

Machine mart do a reulator that screws straight onto a Co2 Fire extinguisher, and they only cost £12 to get refilled.......

I have a BOC pub gas one with a load of gas still left in. I could get my £35 deposit back if I took it back to BOC so I want that for it. I also have the 2 gauge reg and adaptor hose for small MIGs. U2U me if interested.

Have you got the pressure turned up too high? They should last at least 10
