Thanks for the video, Justin. I've got to put my double 50s together for my rebreather. This will help tremendously.

This is awesome. Wish I could be rich enough to buy any of these..
Thank you for the video though!

Not the way I have done it for years. I put the mani together first. Put both tanks in the bands loose, spin the mani and valve on one tank and tighten with strap wrench, move the other tank up and thread the tank on the valve. Tighten with strap wrench. Tighten bands and rotate isolator as needed. The isolator has fine threads and a real possibility is cross threading or one starting before the other. The tank valves are coarse threads and won't cross thread. This method does not need a perfectly flat surface and can be done by one person on the tailgate of a pickup truck or a picnic table. Adjust band height to match the backplate.

Nice video thanks for sharing. What about putting tape on the inside of the twinset bands to stop galvanic corrosion?

Thank you very much, very good video! I just got my twinset back from a local shop and noticed that at the four places where nuts should be, one of them did not come with a washer - may I ask if that's a serious enough problem?

Can I take out the manifold while tanks ate filled?
