Propane Tank Wood Stove
So I've Got A Pile Of Steel Forklift Propane Tanks That My Work Was Going To Throw Out. And Naturally I Figured I Could Do Something With Them, So I Added Them To The Ever Growing Pile Of "Future Something Projects". I Was Going To Turn Atleast One Into A Wood Stove. My Question Is, Does The Safety Valve Allow Air To Be Drawn In? I'm Thinking Of Different Ways To Allow Air In To Feed It. Any Suggestions Are Always Welcome.

Here is some images on different wood stoves, made for propane tanks.

I have only made one wood stove and that was out of an ammo can. My experience with that project tells me that with the valve open, it will provide air for the fire but not nearly enough. Another tip/suggestion: with ample air supply you'll also need ample exhaust as well (diameter).
