5 pound CO2 tank stability

[Kurt_S]

I have a 5# CO2 tank that I use cause it's more portable than my 20#. So it's being moved around to where it's needed.
But it's not stable, especially with the 2-stage regulator that's on it. I'm looking for some stability solutions. I could build a wooden cage for it. Or tie it to milk crate (but that's a big footprint).
Has to be an easy solution that someone has innovated to keep it from falling over!
Thanks!
Kurt

Maybe something like a fire extinguisher bracket??? Just a thought. Really depends on where your moving it to and from and what surface you may have to mount it to.

Can use a chain connected to a nearby wall (or in the fridge)...
Want a hook on one end so you can unhook easily.

Zymurgy issue w homemade equipment mods had a caddy. Plywood and 2x4. Easily within any skill set.

^Fancy^
I went more utilitarian with my tank nests, built from pine and MDF leftovers, nail-gunned together and some leftover paint applied...

Cheers!

This will be my portable tank, so it goes with me when I take a keg to a shindig or when I need CO2 in the basement.
The wooden approach looks like the way to go. I like the Zymurgy design.
Thanks guys.
