Hey Kevin,do you need to remove the gas from the tube before I cut it to make a cupping tool ? Or should just take my chances and say hell with it,be a man?

@theflyinwop (As I sit here shaking my head and wondering just what you people are smoking and if I can get some)..

That would have to be a BIG stop right there and pull the valve first please. (yes,I know you are kidding but you never know about the rest of the folks out there) Make sure the bottle is empty and then get a BIG wrench to remove the valve. Make sure the valve is in the open position when you are turning it in the correct direction.

@abstractduk I should wear ear protection. If I know I am going to be doing something noisy for a while I will put them on. For this video I didn't want to take the time putting them on and off and on again.
