That's fair, thanks. I'll follow up locally.

I live in a distant land called Missouri
. Is this a touchy subject maybe? I'm just a little surprised this conversation seems to have began and ended with "talk to a local propane supply place".

Most of the setups I've seen have a portable tank sitting next to the forge with the regulator connected directly to the tank and a hose leading to the forge plumbing. I'm not really comfortable having the tank right there. So, I would prefer to keep my portable tank relatively remote from the forge and have my Fisher 0-30 psi regulator located with the forge plumbing so I can easily adjust it while working. I know in a typical permanent tank installation there's a secondary and primary regulator. Can I install a secondary regulator at the portable tank for added safety and if so do you have suggestions on the type/specifications of such a reg?

I don't mean to hijack the thread but I have a regulator related question and thought this might be a good location. If not let me know and I'll start a new thread.

I don't disagree. I'm not guessing, I'm asking questions. This, on a forum that discusses and provides details on what are essentially DIY flame throwers. So yes, I'm a little surprised there is no discussion about how you manage the fuel source. That said, Thomas made a good point and I'll follow up locally if I decide to change my setup.
