Propane Adapter

Sometimes I really want something badly and its just not available. So I make whatever I am needing, in this case I needed a propane adapter.
Digging around my house I found 1 of several propane torch tips, and a couple brass parts found at any trucking shop and an empty butane can.
Cutting the top off the butane can and cutting it small enough to fit inside the brass fitting, next was to drill the opening of the brass big enough for the butane nozzle to pass through next was to grind the brass nut so it would seat deeper, enough to squash the butane nozzle and an o ring to create a seal. After that I soldered the other brass fitting onto the torch tip after I drilled the opening of the torch bigger. A little thread sealant and ta-da. One homemade propane filler upper. I also found some 100% silicone oil in differnt weights at Summit Powr tools.

good effort but they do make something like that

ya no shoit but being the impatient person I am waiting 3 weeks for it was gonna drive me over the edge. Nobody has 1 to sell or for sale in town.

and yes it works. Only drawback I found so far is it seems to have a pressure regulator in the nozzle I have to remove, when I charge the clip, I only get 15 or so shots b4 it runs out of gas, I post tonight after I make a few adjustments. After building this one I figures out how to simplify the design for the next one.... I'll post pics on construction. Total time for construction bout half hour.

What's wrong with these ones? Looks like he's got over 11 in stock, and for way cheaper than what I paid for mine ($40)

Jugglez's can get it to you in 2 days from time of payment to arriving on your door step... that is if you want to pay a bit more than regular post... but still its pretty amazing that you took the time to build one

2 days! Cool, I have paypal so I'll have to order one. Gonna start testing the claymore design this week.

checked the inside of the brass part that goes into the propane and and found a little spring and 2 other pieces that were a pressure regulator, removed them and now this propane adapter works awesome.
