+1My sister last summer calls me. She found a small fridge with a corny keg, 2.5# co2 tank w/ regulator, brass faucet in the door. $15Somebody's old soda set up. Fridge works, co2 tank is outdated and I need to rebuild the regulator but my daughter loves the rootbeer :-)Talk it up enough and eventually it will come.btw, the 2.5# tank, outdated, a gas shop in the neighborhood said they cant fill but after some talking about brewing and making rootbeer for my daughter gave me a full 5#er full for $35 cashDoesn't hurt to talk up your hobby - a little. Give people a beer, let them know what else you need/want.

JB Weld + sand paper + a new coat of paintI just acquired another one that previously belonged to a soda company. It needs a new hydro test as well. I need to get rid of it, but have no idea what to do with it since it says "Property of XXXX" right on the tank.If someone in the Raleigh area wants to buy it cheap, lemme know.

I have SERIOUSLY been considering this. Is there a particular type of JB Weld?JB Weld + sand paper + a new coat of paint

Better beleive it.I got one 20# tank from an owner of a LHBS who sold it to me for $20 complete with regulator( had to replace low pressure guage ) and it was 3/4 full.Another I got at a service garage in a local golf course. seen the 20# tank off to one side,asked the grounds keeper what he was doing with it and was told it was out for the trash. Askedfor it as was given it free.Both tanks had to be recertified before being refilled ( we don't have tank exchange here ) butit was still worth it.I think some of it comes from just being in the right place at the right time, too.

I did this with Bondo over the lettering, then sand smooth when dry, then paint. Couldn't even tell. Then took to a swap place and there was no questions asked. I was amazed at how great it looked actually. You really couldn't tell. Bondo was easier to work with than JB Weld FWIW.I have SERIOUSLY been considering this. Is there a particular type of JB Weld?
