So awhile back a friend gave me this old plumbers furnace that he had sitting around. With the propane tank - about half full. I finally got around to trying it out.

Well I've gotta say that it's a hot one. Noisy though. I had a bunch of sheet lead that came from old roof vents. A lot of rubber sealant, and nasty smelling stuff. Didn't take long to get to smoking and finally flaming, and I had a pretty good melt going on. Then-- in blew a rain cloud. I had to shut er down, and put a cover over things. At least I know it will work good.
I'm gonna have to improvise when it comes to filling that old propane tank though. It doesn't have a conventional valve on it, an I'm going to have to figure out a gizmo to do it from another legal tank. jd
