    How do I plump 8 40# tanks together?

    If you want to tie some tanks together its easy. Find a LPG service guy at a diner. Tell him you need some tee blocks and pig tails. Put the tee's in the tanks and tie them together with the pig tails. The first one you may need a POL by QCC adapter if your camper has a hand wheel. Mike.

    Garage heating advice?

    I use a Hot Dawg. Works real good. My shop also a hobby shop. I leave the heat off during the week. I turn it on for the weekends. If drying paint it may be on for ten days or so.
