Personally I would sling it like any stage Clipped to the left using your top D ring and bottom D ring (same one as your SPG is clipped on to). You can rig it like any other stage just on a smaller scale.

Here's a excellent site which describes how to rig your Cylinder and its cheap as Chips. Get the Rope and Jubilee Clip from a chandler. If you can't be arsed to Blue Peter it you can by ready made online from all good retailers near you!

The Narked at 60 stage rig is nice, That's what I use on my 3 litre side sling. Use one of the bands from your pony clamp and you're away.
