Does anyone know a less expensive source for a CO2 tank and regulator
other than the local homebrew shops?

CO2:
All-Safe Fire & Test
915 Washington Ave N, Mpls
(612) 332-3473
Regulator:
For about $50 you can get a good regulator at any welding supply
store. You only need one that goes up to 50 psi (not even that
high). IMO, a gauge to tell you how much gas is left in the tank is
worthless.

Thomas pointed out All Safe Fire & Security at 915 Washington Ave N.;
downtown, warehouse district. (651) 225-8000. They handle fire
extinguishers and apparently also handle industrial canisters. I
talked with the representative on the phone regarding their prices:
2.5# Steel $30
5# Steel $50
5# Aluminum $60
These are industrial canisters, filled and tested. They have 4 of the
2.5# canisters in stock and could fix up a few 5# canisters in a day
or two. They generally have one or two in stock all of the time.
I don't know if $50 is cheap, but it seems reasonable. Do they sell
the 2.5# canisters at NB?
