    Hey guys, I stopped by Tintmasters today in Fargo and they are no longer taking nitrous tanks to get filled.
    The guy was saying there might be someone in Detroit Lakes filling them. Anyone know who that might be??
    Anyone else in the Fargo area??

    Thanks

      Brend Repair in Detroit Lakes - Hwy 34
      $8/lb though... the stuff has gone up in the last few years!

      Used to be $4/lb in Brainerd at two shops.

          It was $10/lb at Tintmasters and other local shops.

            Wow... last time I filled at Tintmasters was probably 4-5 years ago... I am pretty sure it was $5/lb at that time.

            I used to grumble in Brainerd at $4/lb as most people I knew in other states were paying $2.50 - $3/lb.

            I think I should buy a refill station!

              I'm not sure what it takes these days, but I know before, you needed a pretty substantial setup to be "legal" to refill the tanks.

              At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                Cant you just go to a medical supply store that sells it? I don't think that you have to have any special permits to buy it...

                  Needs to be Nytrus Plus, which is the Nitrous with the added chemicals. It is illegal to sell nitrous oxide (medical grade) without a prescription.

                  To have and sell it legally you need to have a hot works permit, separate room to store the mother bottles, permit to store over 500 cubic ft of an oxidizer as well as have stickers to the entrance of the building housing the mother bottles, also if there is a fire and you can not get the bottles out or verify visually to the fire fighters they are out they will not go into the building.

                  I'm getting my shop up and may have a fill station so have talked with the fire marshal about it.

                        I was just about to mention that. 10lb bottle, but $5/lb. It went up to $6/lb last year, but this year Laske has been ridiculously busy.... Sorry Cyclone.

                            How much is it down in Watertown?
                            I plan on running in the July 10-11th bracket race in Brainerd with Ruthless351 and MisterCMK... won't need it until the week before then.
