One little comment that you made in your video concerning the tank connector I think you said you guys may have to drill out the check ball. That solved my no flow problem, didn't know there was a check valve in there.
I know this a couple years late, but you had asked why you don't use a compressed air regulator on LPG. To my understanding the internal workings is very similar between the two. It comes down to the rubber used inside to make seals for the diaphragm, LPG will decay/rott the seals in a normal air regulator leading to a leak, and possible fireworks. The type of rubber used in LPG regulators I do believe is called buna rubber and can with stand the effects of LPG corrosion. Perhaps you could manufacture some seals to replace in the air regulator and still retain the visual pressure gauge. Hope this helps and keeps ya safe. Thanks for the videos and info you bring.
@@t.h.o.r. haha. i had a mouse do a drive by like that the other day in my garage. i caught the little bastard in a live trap and then released him in a grassy area where a Coopers hangs out. Mouse didn't make it 20 feet before it got swooped. it was glorious.
i have to ask i bought a weed burner / blow torch from harbor freight, no regulator just straight tank pressure, in line valve is pressure & flame adjust. its a monster but when i stick it in the foundry it back pressures & suffers.

Safety ruins everything good ,all to protect the simple . But i dont complain i just disarm ...

Great input friend , we did have one fail and we assumed the seal failed just as you said . the same thing happens to propane hose
@@NOBOX7 inspect before each use and replace regularly. Be safe be smart!
What is the pressure of your propane tank without the regulator at 70-80 degrees ambient temperatures?
Dude!- is that a mouse at your feet @6.05 ?
Lol wow , indeed it was , thats why i have three cats
@@NOBOX7 stop feeding them then!- they are doing a poor job :)

Put a tee in for your pressure gauge.
I have a question, what regulator can I use for a lpg burner? Could I use an oxygen or CO2 regulator?
Dont use a regulator you dont need one on high power applications
i have to ask i bought a weed burner / blow torch from harbor freight, no regulator just straight tank pressure, in line valve is pressure & flame adjust. its a monster but when i stick it in the foundry it back pressures & suffers.
you need secondary air
@@NOBOX7 right on, i went ahead & made a burner, got time to play now, Wow !
You have to calibrate your highflow
Good job....
Rats! 5:54
Indeed , good thing i didnt get bit
