Just got myself a co2 tank designed to fill small paintball tanks.

I plan to use this mostly for combat robotics and possibly
for a MIG set up when I get MIG.

I do have SCUBA experience, an air compressor and a TIG set up. But
co2 seems to be a bit of a different horse as it is stored in liquid
form.

Looking for information sources on handling this safely.
Favorite books, web sites, free advice...

Tanks :-) for any help.

SCUBA tanks are a lot higher pressure than CO2. The only real issue with
CO2 is the potential for frostbite if you manage to release it in liquid
form on yourself. Just download the MSDS from the Airgas site.
