Default Adjustable Propane Regulator, Which, Where to Buy?

What brand/Type/Model Adjustable Propane Regulator is a good choice for a small gas forge furnace?

Where can they be purchased (locally) without having to ship/wait (what type store, eg: Barbeque, Welding Siupply, RV/Trailer Supply,etc???)?

i have a nice Goss 0-60. thats just because I already had it laying around when i started blacksmithing. 0-30 is all your really need, and the higher pressure ones are too expensive for the extra psi you wont be using.

I use a "Mr Heater" 0-60 PSI regulator, purchased at a big box store (Manard's). I crank it all the way down and use an Alcon needle valve to control the volume of the propane. Cost was about $20. The product number is F273719 (Propane High Pressure Regulator with Soft Nose P.O.L).

Appreciate the replies/info.

As suggested, I was checking out the "Zoeller Forge" website, and it looks like he uses/sells a "Fisher" Regulator, Model number 67CH-743 for $34.

Turns out, that there is a Fisher distributor a few miles away. Does that seem a good choice (1/4-inch NPT?)
