Wife smasher.

J/K!

Sad story... I was putting on my BC and my wife was behind me...smacked her in the head with my tank on accident. Poor thing had a bump and a raging headache...

Wow I can't believe no one said get multiple paintball fills.

OO and for the smuggling..... I have seen paintball players do it with weed on a plane. (not me BTW)

Well,
I don't recommend this but, the other day nobody on the surface was paying attention to our work barge(two old sections of marina float strapped together and powered with a 4 hp outboard=Yankee red necks) and the roller chain had hung up on the barnacled piling. We came up to find one rail a foot under the water. I reverse shimmied down the pole to about 8fsw and an empty 80 wielded from below made a great sledgehammer.


PS Another great use is as a reaction tester for divers. Just say something like "Those guys that claim these things blow up are full of *****". Then throw an empty(I mean valve open empty) 80 as high as you can to prove your point. Any certified diver who fails to run away fails the test

Darn I can't think of anymore you guys covered it all I think ... oh ...

4th of July, tape a sparkler to it and roll it down the street when a parade goes by and watch everyone run for cover thinking that's rather a large firework there.

I like the way you think. Very sick sense of humer: the best kind.

A 'piggy bank' for upcoming trips?

With a piece of 1/2" conduit and a handfull of wire nuts you could be VERY dangerous. By dangerous I mean DANGEROUS!!! This is a rifle range only type of toy!

Put plastic tank mesh on and roll it back and forth through long grass with your foot - it makes a very effective pooper-scooper.

So many uses for scuba tanks, lets add;

I made a TV table using four scuba tanks as legs,

I rigged a regulator to attach an air hose for tools, so I have portable air tools. The air ratchet is really handy when hanging upside down into a marine engine compartment.

I painted a couple of cars using scuba tanks as an air source. Ten tanks will give you enough air to put two coats of paint on a large car.

Scuba tanks make great rollers for moving heavy machinery, when my compressor was dropped off in the parking lot, with impending rain, I levered one end up and slid a scuba tank under it. By pushing and levering I got four scuba tanks under the length of the compressor, and I was able to roll the compressor indoors by myself, taking the tank that the compressor had just rolled off and putting it to the front, repeat as necessary.

I am thinking about using a bunch of them to make a giant wind chime…
