    The pic of the regulator you link to LOOKS like the 0-20psi regulator I bought about 30 years ago and the one I own supplied 6 burners on a couple occasions. 

    Fish cookers and BBQs don't require a lot of volume or pressure unless they're maybe commercial ones. Not knowing I'd buy a higher volume reg.

    I'd drive down to the Petrolane main store and buy one off the shelf and those look a LOT LIKE the one in the link.

    I don't know how much more clear I can make it but here goes. I can NOT evaluate a regulator by looking at  the picture and have to hope psi and the description of light commercial uses means it'd supply what I need. A weed burner uses a SIMILAR volume of propane to a forge burner.

    I'd be rolling the dice buying online just like anybody. Maybe a good bet would be attend a local blacksmith club meeting and ask what they use and where they got it.

    Thank You.

     

  2. It did say "high pressure"not sure if it was high volume, I think it said something about fish cookers and bbq grills. So if I read this right I am looking for a high pressure high volume Propane regulator, and I possibly can run 6 t-burners of the 3/4" type? 

    I do want a regulator with a gauge,,, or I say I do. I see where your regulator has a port for a, gaugehttps://propanewarehouse.com/shop/propane-regulators/adjustable-propane-regulator-1-30-psi/ Thank you for the info.

  3. Tim ,,,, I have been studing the youtube vid you posted for sometime .

    When I was a younger man I asked my grandad how to put up a fence he told me you are a smart lad just get started and every idiot in town will come by and tell you how you did it wrong and in the end you will have a fence they will have an opinion ,,, see which will hold livestock better.

  4. I still want to try a oil burning forge. For over 20 years that i served the military has used oil burning heaters and the14 years I was the maintence tech on fuel oil heaters for water at Excello in Americus ga we used oil with very little or no problems for the exception of an untrained members not keeping the filters changed or trying to use the blowers to warm lunch ,,,, funny how a soup can will pop if yiu dont put a small hole in it....
