Andrew Walcker said:I just finished this one a few weekends ago. Basically bolted a sailboat cleat (West Marine) with Stainless hardware to the top of the cap for the water tank. The issue was that the cap was somtimes hard to remove (when hands are cold, change in altitude/pessure in tank, etc.) Makes removing/installing the cap a breeze and some bling to boot!
gillti said:Andrew, I think the dipped hardware is one of the coolest things you have done so far. Very clean and useful.

spressomon said:I keep trying to find/figure out a propane heater that I can adapt for use in the ccccold weather months. I saw this...relativey small...could build a collapsible stand for it...use flex tubing to get the hot air into the tent. Any thoughts one way or the other?

Andrew Walcker said:I'm curious, did you look at/or have used the Zodi tent heater and decided to go in a different direction? I have a Zodi that I cut the battery clips off and soldered a cig lighter adapter onto so that I can plug it into the cig lighter recepetacle on the nose box of the AT. Still need to figure out how to tap it off the propane tank instead of using the smaller disposable canisters...
Coleman, Texsport, Century and others make propane distribution poles to mount to a bulk cylinder and tap off sideways with hoses for grills, etc. And the top of the pole is a fitting like a disposable tank, so you can put on a lantern or a Zodi:Andrew Walcker said:Still need to figure out how to tap it off the propane tank instead of using the smaller disposable canisters...
