How to connect a SCUBA tank to my airhose?

Post by HawaiiRockets »

Luckily SCUBA tanks are not too tuff to find around here and pretty cheap, bout $100.. but I'm still not clear on what kind of regulator and associated fittings I need to connect one to my air hose... Anyone have a link to a diagram and/or specific list of fittings? thx

Must be nice to have easy access to scuba tanks. I have been wanting to get one for a long time. Even though I live in Florida, it isn't cheap. Here is a really good article on this topic:

I also recommend you look around that site. George is a water rocket genius. He goes by air.command on the forums.
