I use a Coke or Pepsi canister from syrup dispenser as they are pressure rated and I use their proprietry adapter and then put my hose on after that to a wand like discribed. It works great, I then repressurize it as needed.

Admin,
I did not post photos in the forum, I merely posted a link. I did not wish to go through the 10 minutes of resizing, uploading, bookmarking, linking, resizing again, etc. etc. etc.
I will refrain from any such nonsense in the future.

> I have found that trucks,used in arbor service,are attacted by the acidity of the wood chips

Yes, I have noticed that with my own trucks, seems like oak is the worse. I tried to wash down my mill everyday and I designed my flatbed so I could easily flush and wash the underside. Since the truck spewed oil I did not have to worry much about undercoating it :-D

 Hard hats don't rust but I smear bar oil all over mine in spring. It really helps when those black flies swarm around your face. By the end of the day hard hats covered with the little buggers. ;D
