harness to mount your fuel tanks, like the low pressure stainless steel oxygen
tanks.

<span style='font-size:

and talk the rigger out of an old skydiving harness. Rig the risers to the
burner frame strap the tank to the back where the parachutes were and have fun.

across a lake in a basket.

I'd beware of that one. Says "Contractor Grade," so you can assume
it's almost guaranteed to be built wrong, fail spectacularly, incur
major hidden costs, and/or walk (fall) off the job without finishing.
