I think Tom Allen is doing the fill rigs.
Once it's all connected you stick the connector onto your fill nipple, then turn on the output from the tank (making sure your bottles turned off if need be). Watch the guage go up, then turn straight off, not slowly as this can leave the fill valve open.
Depending on the rig you might need to purge the line, then disconnect and you're away.

Demonic has described the filling procedure well, but sourcing the gear, you should look at local paintball stores and dive shops.
I do make fill rigs, but you may find it's cheaper to buy locally than over here.

Dont fill your tank fast...nice an steady, one reason is because they heat up, and will give you a lower fill pressure...main reason is becasue flash filling, could overstress teh tank, and shorten its life, or yours.

Make sure teh bottle is fully on teh fill station, and that teh quick release if fully forward, ro you may find teh tank flies off...not funny!
