You'll need a regulator & gauge assembly on the bottle to reduce the pressure at the jug. Then get yourself a short length of air hose with an air chuck installed on the end of it. It should be pretty simple.

okay but the end of the bottle is flat so do i have to peirce it to get the air or someting

Don't know what your tanks look like in Australia but here they look like this. (note this is a small tank)

Look for deals on regulators at eBay.

make sure you use a regulator on your co2 tank. co2 tanks typically run around 800 psi. mcmaster.com sells co2 regulators but theyre kinda spendy, you're gonna spend at least $100 on one

im talkin its like a 12gram co2 tank but much bigger i think it is 330grams so i cant use it all in one go or some ones gonna die. so i need to put the 12gram co2 hook up with a gauge some where in there. i think

If it's a 12 gram <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Brass-Eagle-12g ... g">this</a> will this help.

i said its like a 12gram end
but its 330grams so i need the 12gram attachment but with a regulator on it so my cannon does not blow up when i pressurize it

post us a pic of these 330 gram co2 containers.
it doesnt seem logical to make a disposable 330 gram co2 cartridge. the 12 gram co2 cartriges are made the way they are so they can be disposable, theyre cheap and easy to make. a 33o gram canister that must be pierced doesnt make sense. post some pics dude

Boilingleadbath thanks for the assist.
I noted the source code that you provided and will use it in future posts, I'm a quick learner.

i cant find a pic but i think the soda stream carbonator has a valve built in in the form of a button so you just stick your 330gram bottle in then you can use it in small amounts and im trying to ask where i can get one of these ""buttons""/valves so i can use the co2 in small amounts.
