I know, right? I only have half a dozen or so propane blowtorches sitting around. I did the same as AC_Hacker long ago without even a second guess.

But the question was.... "I live on Gilligan's Island and can only mail order a fitting from the web, please find me something expensive. Or if I can make something out of coconuts, that would be great also."☺

I saw this as a challenge to find a part that may or may not exist. With common plumbing fittings, namely a 1/4 fpt valve and a male flare adapter and the right pipe dope, the Mr. Heater RV adapter could be made to work for more than a new blowtorch would likely cost.
