Larry, we have found some dirt cheap deals looking around here on the Left coast.
Tanks, 10-20lbs for 50 $ filled.
River City Fire equipment supply.
Dave Gomberg sell the Fabco needle valves for peanuts(~16$ if you get 6 or more) which are better than the clippards, nothing wrong with them but Dave does not charge any shopping either locally.
Reg's => heck see ebay, 20-35$
So for about 85-95$..........about the cost of going to a decent dinner and movie with the honey.
Look around, be cheap and then tell the whole group where you got things.
We've picked up about 10 new folks in the Bay and have hooked them up on the canned CO2.
That's what clubs do, help out with the local and not so locla issue.
Poke around and see what you can find.
