I was chatting with my LDS guy while renting a tank and he mentioned that a nintety nine year old tank just passed hydro at the shop.
I don't see why a steel tank could not last that long if well cared for, but I was having a hard time figuring out what such a tank would have been made for 100 years ago, well before scuba was invented. And how could the threads have been compatible with a modern valve assembly? Can you rethread a cylinder?
If it's true, what a conversation piece that diver has.
