I had a bottle rented off boc for 3 years until one day I saw a mess on the side of the road where the travlers had been moved off of. In all all the mess was a big mig gas bottle same as mine!!!!!So turned the tour coach round on the A140 and hopped out grabed it ,put it in the locker and off I went.Off hired the boc bottle ...free bottle thanks to the gypseys
Now just swop it at a mates welding firm for the cost of a refill

swapping it with a mate is the only real way. CO2 isnt great, but you wont get proper mixed gas from air products without paperwork
