My homemade CO2 setup

[Jimmy]

I should be able to run an impact gun for about 40 minutes on a tank.

Continuous?  No way.  Prove it college boy.  Show your math.   ;D

Not continuous, total time based on cubic feet of gas in the tank and cfm of an impact. I'm pretty sure the regulator would freeze if you tried to run any air tool for 40 minutes on co2, lol.

Btw, that 40 minutes was for the cheapest Harbor Freight 3/8" impact wrench with 60 ft-lbs of torque which requires 3 cfm @ 90 psi. For their cheapest 1/2" impact wrench with 250 ft-lbs it requires 5 cfm @ 90 psi. That would be around 25 minutes of total use. I'm sure you could get a lower cfm wrench with more torque, but I wouldn't want to carry a $150 Craftsmen tool onto the trail.

We used to cool beer at the fire station when we were getting off work with CO2 Ext. Not a cheap way but very quick.

They did that on a mythbusters show too.

Gotta go to Harbor Freight tomorrow to get a bunch of little couplings and crap. I also need to try to find a place in Augusta that will fil it up so I can test it out.

Hey Jimmy, if you can find a gun or sportsman shop that sells paintball stuff, they will usually have a CO2 tank for refilling the paintball tanks. The one in Lagrange fills my 10 lb tank for like $5. That was 2 years ago. I wish I could figure out who I let borrow my tanks.  >

I found a fire extinguisher place that I am going to bring it to on Monday.

Also, I made my high dollar mount. Hope you don't mind that I copied your idea, Alex:
