Default co2 tank dimensions

Can someone tell me the basic approximate dimensions of the various co2 tank sizes? Thanks.

Paintball tank measurements... Nice. It would take a lot of 9oz tanks to push and carb a keg of beer. LOL.

Agreed trying to carbonate with a paintball CO2 tank is not a great idea, but you should be able to push 2 or 3, 5 gallon kegs with a paintball tank.

I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a very sexy stainless nitrogen regulator than I'll be converting for CO2. The brass one I have will be adapted to use paintball tanks with the William's adapter.
