Question Dive shop won’t hydro test tanks due to previous hydro test stamp placement?

Well whatever you do don't retire the tank and then shoot at it on the shooting range. Tank ricochet is how I took a .38 special in the shin.

Is it written somewhere in the scubaboard rules that once a thread reaches a certain number of replies somebody has to mention guns?

I once stopped a yahoo who thought it was fine to bungee tanks to a roof rack.

It could be.

Good grief. Bring it to a qualified hydro test facilty. Accept their decision. Move on. As diving costs go a new tank isn't even a rounding error.

I came for the Hydro drama, I stayed for the #hashtag education and the cowboy transport, lol

That's your spouse's story and they're sticking to it.

(Heard a story about how a fishing boat captain in Alaska lost his leg when his wife shot him in the thigh with a shotgun. Apparently his wife found out about an affair and, as he put it, "She missed her target.")

Took them to get tested.. the tech said they looked good and will run them through tests and visual inspection! Pretty stoked! I’ll let y’all know what the outcomes are.

It's either on the shoulder or on the wall, if it's too low on the shoulder it's on the shoulder where it should be?

 

[OMyMyOHellYes]

I know you have your won compressor, but if I were in your shoes, when they come back from hydro, I think I'd have to take them to the hop that turned them away for a fill.

You did say hydro and visual - is that the visual that's part of the hydro or a separate VIP with external sticker?
