If you are going to pressurize a tank, you should take the time to build a wood frame around it so it wont blow up like a football! I almost destroyed one tank by not paying attention and using too high air pressure. Now I have the regulator on the bench beside the tank which is joined to it with a short hose. One hand slowly adjusts the regulator, 4, 5, 6, 10 lbs etc. while keeping a sharp eye on the tank. This way the pressure can be held while heating and tapping around a dent or quickly released if something starts to get out of hand.
