You can buy it on Amazon.ca "ships from Ontario".. .lol $39.50 + 6.78 shipping. Twice what it's worth... and you can probably find it on ebay for 1/2 that with shipping Emil. Cheapest I just found 1 lb tanks was 2 for $7.00 at TSC store. So $3.50 each - $1.20 max per fill using the adapter = $2.30 savings on every tank. Pays for itself pretty quick... and you can use it for your soldering torch tanks, etc as well. The most convenient part of the adapter, there is generally a BBQ within striking distance for the 20lb tank no matter where you are. A store with 1 pounders, on a -30C day, not so much!

No... you'd just be wasting propane in the hose (and the end for the 1 on a hose is male, not female). Adapter is a 2" long brass fitting.. screws into the 20 lb tank and the other end the 1 lb screws into it. So you fill, close the big tank valve and then unscrew the 1 lb

..unless of course you're allergic to wool!

Why we time it Chris and as Terry noted we've only had one that ever spit liquid... and of course that was the one we put in the portable shower just to make life a little more exciting that winter !! Why I'm bringing a scale to camp this year... to get it down to a science on time vs fill weight. As for those gloves 35wailwin, thank the labour board and / or you health and safety committee for that. Probably not a bad idea, but do you do that to change your BBQ tank at home??? You probably should I guess, as there is no difference between it and that 33 pounder on the fork truck. The propane "gods" got so bad that we got rid of our propane trucks all together at the plant and went totally electric trucks, just to keep the Labour board at bay from their nonsense. Filling a one pounder from a 20, using strictly the pressure in the tank is a LOT safer than filling a 20 from that big ass tank in the yard with a pump.... and yes I have a licence to do that, as does my wife, my in-laws and at least one of the sister-in-laws. Watching the old man fill a 100 pounder with an outdated rusty valve, that my wife refused to fill, and having it blow off the weight scale and into the ditch... all while the customer was standing beside said ditch (now full of propane) with a smoke in his mouth... now that may make your heart skip a beat or two! Filling a one from a twenty.... only illegal because someone wasn't making money and lobbied against it.

Yah Bernie.. wear gloves.. the stuff is COLD! Emil.. I saw the adapter in TSC in New Liskeard this summer, should have bought a hand full of them! Very easy to make your own, from an old 20lb tank fitting and a propane torch head.

A buck or two? I don't use them myself, I just lug the 20 lbr everywhere... but when you go through 2 or 3 x 1 pounders a day. At just $1.20 to refill vs how much to buy a new one? 10 day ice fishing trip... 30 empty tanks PER GUY.. to landfill !

Yah.. I use to say that Dave and didn't believe there was any way to possibly overfill a 1 pounder....... then I hung out with Terry and Lloyd a little longer! LMAO Time it... and time it accurately.. the fill time. Start short and work your way up. This year I have a digital scale that I forgot I even had in the shop... so we can tare an empty and then time and weigh until we get it to a science.

Come over and tend to my place next summer... and do some wrenching in the garage for a bit with me...and you'll be just fine for next winter Nick!

Sears offering jobs... after closing their 3 key stores? Sounds odd..

NO>> NO>>> It's ice cream...

I'm sure they'll fill their production quota...

That was one sad game.... good thing they fired the coach to make things work! Tear the C off that useless good friend of DanC ... lol

If I do that for you Cliff... it will cost you about $2000 to get through the MDRA inspection program.. $250 to Transport Canada for your C of A and C-GXXX markings and you have to carry liability insurance! Get an ownership for one of the tracks / tunnels you buy Cliff... and just go pay the 15 bucks for the sled sticker (and $6 to transfer) and if the tunnel comes from an old beater sled you'll pay less than 200 bucks a year to be insured. Don't ever show the insurer a picture of the sled though.....

Probably should order a few more... been on that same big white one for a LONG LONG time and I'm sure to lose it at the worst time!

You've been watching me the past 8 years haven't you... LOL

Well Dundalk is the best you are going to do in Ontario... unless you want to take up residence in the old firetower on the Ishpatina Ridge...

Sounds like yours is a 3HP Jiffy WD... they were all 24:1. The 43cc I have is 40 to 1 but I just use my 50:1 Stihl oil in it.

Does this mean I'll get my Zellers store back..... ... what a sad waste of billions of dollars and peoples jobs.

I've drilled 50 holes @ 10 feet apart just to find A drop off on Temagami. Last year the ice was 36"+ plus in February. It's currently 21! Topwater..... as noted, either mix your specified mix (probably 40 to 1 in the manual) and be sure you have Stabil in it. Also as noted I've run the same 50:1 can of fuel I use for my Stihl chainsaw with their brand oil.. and it has stabilizer already in it. Storage... you'll get about 3 different responses/ scenarios for that. I leave it full of fuel.

I'll let Terry show me how many holes he can drill per day... and when we get to Kokoko and his battery is already dead by noon...........

Yep.. I just use my Stihl chainsaw mix (50 to 1) and it's never let me down.

From what I understand... a few guys used all those holes to their advantage, to "run and gun" last week !

Midland / Penetang trails are open from what I understand..

IF the motor has enough amperage output sure. Go into Canadian Tire to the motorhome parts section and find the dual battery isolator. It will charge both.. and only drain the one being used. Just make sure you put it somewhere high and dry, the real marine ones are sealed. Now that said... unless you have a LONG boat ride back to the dock, it's not going to completely charge a run down trolling battery.

Did you knock the safety clip out of the kill button...
