One regulator can be used to run both the furnace and glory hole. Order a Gas Y connector for $12. You will not have as much pressure control because both will be using one regulator. Also the propane tank wants to freeze up even more by running both devices off the same regulator. Placing the propane tank in a pan of water helps keep the propane tank from freezing.
| Rollerblades - Yoke to hold blowpipe | $42 |
