I got several of these a few years back @ 72 USD.

I am looking for some aluminum tanks.
Could anyone recommend commercial off the shelf 1 gallon aluminum tanks? I don't need anything over 100 psi.
ARB (Australian company) has some tanks that are about right, but I have discovered that their machinists don't know the difference between NPT and BSPT, which is problematic.
