I was real busy so I couldn't inspect them until this afternoon.
When I finally unpackaged the cylinders they were everything I expected and a whole lot more :-D
Funny thing is previous pics I saw of the cylinders was showing something I should have seen but I completely missed it....
When I opened them up is hit me like a hammer in the head.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Lets start with the Stage 1.5 cylinder (Oscars)
