You mean to buy the O2??  It comes in a cylinder when you order it.  Just
order Aviators Breathing Oxygen from a welding supply store.  You want the
big cylinder (337 cu ft), it is green and has Aviators Breathing Oxygen
painted on the side, it is about 4.5 feet tall.  When you order the O2, you
will have to pay a rental fee ($20 - 40 per year) for the cylinder either per
day, month, or year (yearly is the cheapest in the long run), and pay around
$40 for the O2.  No problems on refill, just take the bottle back and
exchange it.  

You also need an O2 fill whip to fill your tanks.  You can make one of those
pretty easy.  Just get a yoke, the appropriate nuts, nipples, couplers, T's,
and hoses depending on how many bottles you have in your bank.
