I haven't yet, but I have considered making

of use. Lugging the tank seems like it would
be easier than managing (and buying) such a
long piece of 1/2" hose. (I'm talking several
hundred feet.)



Isn't there some kind of law against using a propane tank for
compressed air?


Yeah. Some guy named Darwin wrote it.
