How do you fill your pcp?

Started with a Benji hand pump and switched to SCUBA when I started shooting more.  Now have a used fireman's 4,500 SCBA Tank.

Where do I post to see how others are filling their pcp ....I have been using a air cylinder attached to a Hill Pump, but play around with different ways.

I am so extra very deluxe fortunate to have a great dive shop in town that is about 10 minutes away from my home.  My Joe B. tank gets only the cleanest, driest air to pass along to my PCPs.  Eight bucks per 4,500 psi fill is fine by me, and I get to support a local business.

   444 cu ft 6k nitrogen bottle with Joe B fill station. Then I fill my smaller tanks from that.

Yeah...If I drive, the fill shop is 2.3miles...if I cut corners and walk, it's 1.6 miles.

Nice people, I've met them for lunch a block from their shop.

But no urge to go back to tanks...yet. 

When I retire for the 2nd time (in about 3 years), may treat myself to (1) a really comfortable outside hammock, (2) some new fishing gear, and (3) a tank.....but I'm still leaning towards a 6K N2 set up (the industrial supply company is 3.2 miles in the other direction).

I'm using a borrowed 67ci 4500 Ninja tank. I put a 2k regulator on it to fill my Disco. The best part is I live only 5 minutes from Ninja and they fill for free. Nice people there too.

 So far I've been using an old Scuba tank I have , with an Air Force pump to back it up.
I've only used the pump once to try it out and it was pretty tough getting that last 400psi in there.....

I thought there might be some in the forum who use a Air Pneumatic Cylinder or motor to push and pull their pump...I brought a used double action  Air Pneumatic Cylinder, etc. used a wood frame and fill my rifles sitting in a chair with air control..I,m going to fix it where all I do is flip a switch and  watch it and not have to use air control..I love to tinker..

A Gehmann FX bought in 2010. More than anything else it's been used for lots and lots of fills of several airguns during various types of tuning work. Purchased originally to fill my Pardini K10, then K12, now it's filling the K12, an HPA 2260 carbine, a QB78D with Ninja regulated bottle, a Brocock Atomic carbine conversion,and my son's HiPAC converted 2240 carbine. And since all the tuning is done on those it's not seeing a lot of action, as I don't get out to shoot so much. Tens of thousands of pellets through a Chrony F1, but sadly only a few hundred shots per month out of all these airguns. Oh well, the pump is going strong. Thinking of buying a second one as a backup though. You know, for when the seals eventually melt down and the first needs a rebuild.
