Tim asked about using an O2 regulator on a CO2 bottle.
Because O2 tanks are so often used for human breathing, the
fittings are intentionally made to *not fit* tanks of other
kinds of gases -- going so far as, under CGA specs, to have
reverse threads.
I imagine it's easier to find a decent yet very inexpensive
CO2 regulator (which fits a CGA 320 valve) than to find
fittings to adapt normal to reverse threads.
