I was too late

My father got hold of a few CO2 double regulators, complete with guages . He thought they were only fit for scrap and cut off the guages and fittings flush with the regulators before I was able to rescue them. I managed to get one that he missed.
Not sure if an easy out will be able to remove the pieces in the other ones, but I will sure try.

Anyone want one?

If these can be salvaged yes please. I'm working on a jockeybox and want to permanently mount a regulator and air lines.

Should be easy enough to remove. I can try and pull them if you want to send them over. I have two regs now and don't need one.

I also have some tools to removed stripped bolts that work well with practice. I can help you out as well if you want.

On topic (barely): does anyone have suggestions on removing and replacing broken gauges from regulators? I don't have a vice, and breaking the Loctite stuff on them is kicking my ass. And yes, I know they are left-hand thread (where indicated). I tried heating it up with a torch for a few seconds (I dunno, grasping at straws here), but no go.

I have the same issue.

Maybe we both need a session at a friendly neighbourhood Brewnoser with a table vice, a breaker bar, and a jar of elbow grease. Anyone offering, I'll bring beer as payment!

Ugh, anyone else? This guy makes all of my beer, anyway!

Cool, let's make a date when I'm back, I'd like to get these bad boys fixed up. I'll have Abri de la Tempete beer to share.

I have a small bench vice and a good assortment of tools. If you want to drop over sometime Keith, we can take a crack at it.

I have a vice and all of the tools as well and you know where and when to find me.

I have a vice if Brian happens to be away.

Thanks for the offers gents!

I'm sure I'll be in contact with all of you this summer.

Question? Who has the biggest pipes? My girl arms may not be big enough to take this thing apart.

Way late to report back, but Liverdance hooked me up with his vice and strong arms, and I have my reg sorted. I highly recommend him, he works cheap!

I need to get another. Someone knocked over my tank and the new regulator took a hit lol.
