i decided to start filling my own bottles. went and picked up a 56# bottle last week. but since i really dont feel like flipping bottles and buying one of the christmas tree looking stands, i wanted to make my own.

figured i'd post it up since i haven't seen anything like it before and i think its pretty convenient.

here it is once mounted.






here it is upside down







this is how it spins.






and here is the bolt







material needed
6x6x1/2 plate(5/8 is shown because thats what was around)
3" sch80 black pipe 4" long (seamless is better)
2 1/2" sch40 black pipe 5"
5/16 or 3/8 tap and bolt
8" riser clamp for black pipe
(2) 5/8 bolt 5" long with nuts

My 75lb mother bottles have siphon tubes inside......alot easier than having to put it upside down. That is a cool idea though.

Do you need a pump when using a bottle with a Siphon? I had the option to get one but I wasn't sure. So I went with one without.

I made it from scraps I had around. i wanted to make a cradle in the wall I could lay it into an lift it but I got lazy.

You don't need a pump with a siphon tube. Just need to freeze your small bottles.

No pump needed.....freeze fill

I don't even freeze mine. I have a heater I point at the mother bottle and let it get warm, hook up the small one and open the valves. Shoots right up to around 20-22lbs then I leave it go for a few minuted and it slowly tops off to 24-25 without issue. I thought about vacuuming down a completely empty bottle before hooking it up but so far I haven't needed to.

Siphon tube bottles work, but you'll get more out of the mother cylinder not using a siphon tube and inverting the cylinder. The orientation of the siphon tube does not allow you to get all the nitrous out.

I freeze fill. Read one too many horror stories on heating the mother bottle.

My heater doesn't put out enough heat to even get it hot and it's thermostatically controlled. They make larger heaters as well made just for mother bottles. IMHO, it's safe if you do it properly.
