I knew you Russians were BIG ! But I didn't think you were big enough to use these HP cylinders as SCUBA tanks.

Years ago my neighbor was an an ex professional football player - Big Pete Baralac - the "Mad Russian !"
And He WAS BIG !

And Yes he was the father of the comedian on Americas got Talent also named Baralac

Eagerly as always looking forward to your interesting post-

I am using my wife's old Luxfer alum 63 for a project. I do some painting now and then out in my shop so I am building a moisture removal filter for my shop compressor. I just drilled out the valve today. I will post some pics along the way....

Congratulations -- a fine looking SCUBA bell !
But
Purple ? (The Royal Purple of Tyre? )
Or a favorite color of some one? (aka Wife?)
Or only paint avalaivable ?
Or Undercoat ?

Another congratulations - you have the proportions of the dive flag approximately correct- as established and universally agreed upon by the diving community way back in 1960-- about 59 years ago
5 units wide X 4 units high X 1 unit white strips

Let us see more of your handy work

At Little Cayman Beach Resort they paint old tanks in bright colors and use them as decorative ornaments around the property.
