Hello again Irving saw this on another site thought it might be of intrest to you http://mikesworkshop.weebly.com/propane-burner.html
cheers Tom...
P.S. I've made a couple of wood burning stoves out of gas canisters.
cut the first one with a stihl saw after leaving it for 2 weeks upside down with valve fully open thinking that propane being heavier than air would all be gone.found out it wasn't when the blade cut into inside,blowing the canister half way up the workshop in a fiery rage!!! breaking the disc on the saw and firing it in all directions..
since then I have used the same method as yourself leaving it upright with garden hose running slowly for a day (no water shortage in scotland:naughty:)have had no problems since
SO BE CAREFULL PLEASE EVERYONE!!!!!

I did much the same thing once when spark eroding the spike out of a 6 pounder cannon touch hole.

No problems until it broke through to the bore when the paraffin I was pumping down the electrode carburated going off with a dull thump.

Wouldn't have minded, but on hearing the hiss and crackle as it broke through I was shining my torch down the end.

No eyebrow loss, just made me jump.

Tried to make it do it again but no luck :naughty:
