Piercing a 4 inch gas line

Posted by Homer on June 12, 2007, 4:37 pm

I recently bought a couple of acres with a leanto cabin in a
wilderness setting and discovered a 4 inch gas line across the back.

I'd like to come up with a safe way to pierce the gas line and have
heat for my cabin. No electricity, so need to do it manually.

Any ideas?

Sure -- a RPG and you would undoubtedly have both heat and light...

Sure: contact the owner/operator of the gas line and inquire about the cost
to tap in.
