Would love to see a photo. I've also been looking for a single tank set-up and the only one I can find is $100!

Made straps for a single tank on my boler a couple years ago. Bent a piece of flatbar to suit. I had a hook at the top to grab the tank collar and then a couple gentle bends on it to make it the same rough shape as the tank and then a 90 degree bend at the end. Put a couple nuts and bolts to pull it all tight.

That's what I'm currently using. The hook at the top is too small (almost non-existent), which makes me a bit nervous. And the straps were mounted improperly so it takes a LOT of effort to bolt them to the bracket below. I should probably re-drill the bolt holes in a better location. I loathe having to remove the tank for filling. *%^#!**
