Hi Davekeene,
If you are using disposable cylinders you will need one of these regulators - do you have that part still? If not, Weldequip will be able to supply you one and, I would think, would also help you out with the bit of tube you need. Regards the gas holder - can you make something to hold the bottle upright?
