Dang, finally found a propane dealer who recertifies tanks. Drove over to his business and half his building was torn down. Apparently he is moving a 1/4 miles down the road and is out of the tank certifying business for a couple of months. If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.............
I'm starting to seriously consider going down to the local Chinese Tool Store and buy me a $29 set lettered metal punches and deal with this situation the same way I got my 1973 Bultaco Alpina spark arrestor certified by the "US Forrestry Servise".
