    Hello! I like the idea of working outside and want to move my home
    studio outside on my spacious balcony, but not sure how to safely
    set up my acetylene tank for outdoors. I understand that the tank
    should be kept away from other electrical wires and should be
    chained in an upright secure place and always check for leaks like
    you would for indoor use. The temperature outside is lowest 36
    degrees, highest 78 degrees. Would I need to cover the tank with
    some kind of plastic when not in use? It won't get rained on, but
    how would you protect the tank against moisture in the air? And
    finally, does anyone know of any books or articles on specifically
    how to set up for outdoors? 

Thank you for your time,
lisa schaffer-doggett
