Custom Dual Bottle Gas Tanks

[Adrenaline-Junkie]

Hey guys i have a quick question. I was wondering if anyone makes custom gas tank setups similar to the one in the picture. Im really looking for something a lot simpler like 2 bottles welded together with a clamp system to attach it to the bike. At the very least id like to know if anyone has an idea on where i could just get the bottles by themselves. Thanks

They look like they started out as small acetylene bottles.

You could try large paintball CO2 tanks, empty and change nozzle.

Plenty of options... CO2 bottles, fire extinguisher, welding bottles... Pretty easy to find all of these.

you could just buy my tank, its similar.
and i've been thinking about getting rid of it.

You could use oil tanks like these: http://www.bungking.com/tanks/oil-tanks/pipe-bomb-oil-tank-kit-5-dia.html

Finding tanks is easy but finding them in a shape i like and lighter weight is the hard part. I think ive foundsome that will work.

Maybe buy 5" or 6" size exhaust pipe and then get some domed steel caps in various sizes so you can make it have a smaller radius or a sharper one dependent on your preference? As for the clamp system you could use two or three basic exhaust clamps from Napa or O'riellys with supports reaching to about the middle of each tank in two or three spots. This way you get more design options in length and radius and size of tanks over all maybe even run a line or two in between the tanks so you could have only one filler neck. From this point its all up to your imagination.

I can't recall how many of these I've seen at the local dump, oil-less compressor burns up, tanks are still perfect. Gotta love a throw away society-"FREE PARTS!"

 

[slade]

The throwaway compressor tanks are exactly what I'm looking for.
Thank you

No prob, I'm used to repurposing "junk". This was found at a different landfill, 25 years ago, 120V electric winch with a mashed control box, you can see where it's at now. When activated, the shriek reverberates through the entire roof... I call it the Banshee....
