Hello all, I'm going to start Fabricating my reverse flow. I have a 20" diameter by 5' propane tank (100 gallons) and I was wondering if there is a calculator that I can use? Any tips and tricks would be greately

There a lot of us that has had questions for Dave. I also spent some time searching thru previous posts on the forum and found a lot of answers to my questions. Great site though and welcome.

Dave, by the way, I am almost ready to update some pics of my build!!! I'm also am making a video. For videos, I guess the best way to show them is to post a link??

Video's are way cool....   YES... do that if you can....  Management prefers you "Embed" the videos so they aren't so distracting...    U-Tube is compatible with the forum..   If you "mouse over" the images at the top of this section, you should find and "insert Video" icon..  

You have questions ??   If you do not have a thread going, PM me...
