Met Barry Breaden recently - a bloke from Tassie, who has converted a 9kg gas cylinder into a stove for
camp oven cooking - he was happy to share his idea with all and sundry - details for those interested HERE on my site.

No... I'm wrong... just looked at the
pic. and.. the one I saw was made from a beer keg... more like a Webber. Shouldalookedfirst.

That's a top idea... In the interest of stating the obvious, make sure your bottle is absolutely 100% devoid of any gas residue before attacking it with the 9"...

Thanks for the pics Darian
Nice idea
Does the cylinder need to be in
test to be legal :)
I'd like to see the look on the Swap-n-Go guys face when you took it in to exchange for a full one :)
Seriously though, to be sure the bottle's empty (remember that gas is heavier than air) take the valve off and fill the bottle with water. Empty it then cut.
An improvement to the design might be to thread the
chimney so that you could remove it and then store the
camp oven inside.
