All upside. The only thing I don't do is the exchange thing. I bought my own tanks, and keep them protected from the weather.
My dad has 2 propane tanks he is going to give me. However he said the last time he got them filled that the tops would need to be changed (not sure what that means) because they were an old style?

Dad is older and getting photos of the items right in front of him is like pulling teeth.

Both are 40lb tanks and if I fill them at a local shop that would be preferable as it would be more convenient.

As far as oxygen goes, is there a "easier" option than going to the local supplier? I have heard woes from other artists at the local shop that they do everything from overcharge if you are labeled "an artist" to flat out telling you they do commercial only. I guess it depends on who you talk to?

I can only imagine they get a lot of clueless people coming to buy something that them and 2 friends can't lift into the back of their Honda Fit lol.
