Benny, does it really take THAT much fuckin effort to refer him to a place to do research like <a href="http://www.burntlatke.com">BurntLatke.com</a> and tell him to look in the "Build Your Own" section?

Death of Doom: You can't just pour propane in. You need to meter it in between two valves or in a 3-way valve. It takes surprisingly less propane for the most powerful shot than you think. And if you have over 9.2% of the chamber volume filled with propane it wont even ignite.
