[PSUBS-MAILIST] Shell, downsizing

[Rick Patton via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi all,

Thanks for your responses.
I have industrial 02 bottles in my shop but by equalizing the bottles you
would not get you a full bottle  which I would prefer to have before going
out. I could get an HP 02 transfer pump to do that but they are expensive.
The Welding supply stores here have to send the bottles to Oahu to be
filled and they won't fill a scuba tank with any kind of 02 and the dive
shop as I said want's a tech cert which is costly to get so this ordeal has
been quite frustrating!
I did get an oxygen provider cert many years ago which this shop may accept
(there trying to decide) but they expire and the only guy on the island
that I know of able to give that course has left. Seems crazy that you can
go out and but an assault rifle after passing a background check without
proving to them you know how to use it and then shoot up the town but they
make it so hard to purchase 02!
Rick
