Re: [A/S] Propane storage

[schuetzen - RKBA! <chasm@xxxxxxxxx>]

to me this is scary as I have a scraped off 6 foot tube forward of the front
axle and a hole in the banana skin on the curbside from pulling thru a spot
lower than it looked.

what scares me is the fact that the tube is attached with pop rivets in the
belly skin probably and is acceptable for supporting a half lb of sewer hose,
but not a 2lb bottle of propane much less 4 of them. eventually, the
acceleration of the inertia of that weight in a corrugated road, the increasing
crystallization of the pvc from ozone, etc and so on, is going to end up with
worst case results -- dropping quarter stick dynamite equivalents on the hiway
at speed with commensurate damage to trailer and or following traffic.

I don't mean to hurt feelings or start a contest here, but I personally feel
this is an act of irresponsibility.  I would quit while I am ahead and start
using a hose off the tanks instead of the "cans" and resume using the pvc pipe
for the purpose intended or even, the support structures available for sewer
hoses out there.
