The biggest tank weld specialties will let you own is 150, it costs me $47 to fill. Otherwise I believe it's $85 a year to lease a larger bottle.

Just wanted to drop a line and say hi. I weld for a living and on the side as a hobby for about 20 years. Looking forward to getting good info and sharing what I know.
