I've got an 6 speed, 2 wheel drive, 2008 Jeep Sahara Unlimited and I need snow chains or cables for my tires. My tires are 255/70/18 and need best to know what works awesome for Icy/snow roads?
Its not easily done. The fittings allow a lap joint which is then soldered making a very strong and robust joint. What you are proposing would create a butt joint and they are very weak. There are some types of rubber boots that might allow this to be done but I've not seen anything exactly like what you are requesting.
When we moved three years ago I turned in four fully charged but outdated fire extinguishers to my local Fire Dept. They, in turn, handed them off to their fire extinguisher supplier for disposal. When I worked at an aircraft maintenance facility we would remove the valves from obsolete extinguishers - drill a hole in them - and put them in the scrap metal bins. The bottoms made fairly decent ashtrays when they were cut off. The pencil holder on my desk is a cut down 5 pound brass extinguisher base.
