    For the curious guy that would like to know how it works, it would've been nice to have an explanation of what you're doing and why instead of music.

      The motor is way too loud to be able to talk while filming, maybe I can record the procedure separate and edit it together next time

    Thanks for comment. The reason hammer and fittings are brass is so there will be no sparks. Can;t have any type of ignition source when working with oxygen.

    Thanx. Can;t say i have ever got a buzz from it, but it clears the sinuses! We have to make sure the area is well ventilated, breathing too much pure oxygen can be bad for u.

    I drove an oxygen tanker for a lil while. Lots of fun especially with an old style trailer"gas motor with a sometime funny acting throttle". Would have been nice to have hydralic at the time. liquid is no fun if it ever splash ya . The laugh i use to get when people passed and eye got big when they would see the cloud coming from the vent on top of tailer

    i recorded it with sound, but thought it was too loud, so put music in place of the sound. it's a VW motor. we have a few trailers with kubota pony motors, i like those better, they seem to run smoother, and don't overheat.

    Hey hows it going? Nice vid. I was wonderin. What the purpose of a brass hammer? Also looks like some of the fittings/connections are brass or copper? is there a reason? I do heavy haul and my tanker experience is limited to hauling fly ash, and cement in a pneumatic tank.. Thanks for the info.

      Non-sparking tools:
      Beryllium copper is only used when strength and hardness are needed because it is much more expensive than brass. The tools here are brass, as are the connectors on the pipes.

      James Oxygen itself is not flammable. However, it is an oxidizer and makes flames hotter. It's used in some welding applications.
