I'm a Fish!
So had a few of these made this week ones for steel cylinders and ones for S80 cylinders. So much better than the noodles and rope, especially in the back of a truck. Secure the racks and use bungee to secure the cylinders to the rack OR just ratchet the lot down. Thought Id share as Im annoyed its taken me so long to do this lol

Nice! I'd like to make a few like this eventually. I deal with the noodles and rope for now, but these look like a much better solution.

Yeah so far they have been great will get a photo of them tied down and being used this week if the weather eases up
 
This is just some scrap 2x4 and 2x6 and wood screws. Painted in left over floor enamel paint. Sized to hold steel 100s and AL80s. Have nothing invested in it. Put the paint on super thick, had to leave it outside for a week to fully dry. Tools used were a circular saw and a drill to drive the screws. Even used the saw to notch a place for the tank boots if present. This could have been made with a hand saw and a screwdriver if that was all that was available.
Plans? None. Just made it to fit.
