Cylinders, safety & special gases in Kimberley: local notes
Contractors working the diamond diggings and engineering shops in the Kimberley industrial area rent oxygen, acetylene and argon mixes, and smaller diggers near Barkly West often fetch refills in town. Chain cylinders upright on the bakkie for the drive. In summer, a cylinder left on a Roodepan stoep or in a parked car gets very hot, so keep it shaded. Lockable, ventilated cages help against theft in Beaconsfield.
Kimberley: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Kimberley is the Northern Cape's capital and its diamond city, with summers that are very hot and dry and winter nights that can drop below freezing. Both extremes affect gas use. In winter, homes in Hadison Park, Royldene and Galeshewe lean on gas heaters and stoves, and in summer cylinders need shade. Mining contractors and engineering shops in the Kimberley industrial area rent welding and cutting gases, and irrigation farms along the Vaal and Riet rivers near Barkly West and Ritchie use gas in farmhouses. LPG comes in by road over long distances to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores. Outlying farms and smaller towns rely on delivery rounds, so order early in winter.

- Homeowners: a disposable kit for a child's birthday or a gender reveal at home
