We usually make an adaptor, using a cheap off-the-shelf NPT-to-tubing
compression tube fitting available in any hardare store here, but probably
hard to find elsewhere.

You also need some sort of flow control since a SCUBA reg will be dumping
the gas out at about 140psi/9bar and very high volume. Just a needle valve
will do in a pinch but it's nice to know what the flow is. I have a
homemade adaptor which has a cheap surplus needle valve and flow meter and
adaptor so it goes on a SCUBA reg, which doubles as a gas sampler for
analyzing. It cost about $10 to make - it's all in the Oxy Hacker.

You can also use a BC QR adaptor, and use it with a reg with a BC hose one,
