Probably be able to find one at an rv parts store.  Usually they have 2 ports, but you can plug one.  I will look in the garage tomorrow, I may have one that is a single port from an rv.  Be glad to send it to you.

It needs to be an adjustable one to fine tune the pressure hawk. I have just been busy trying to finish up a few projects, but if ya got one I'll take it lol

Hawkdancer:
Didn't know they were adjustable.  The two I found don't have any noticeable adjustment.  I always thought the adjusting was done with the control valve.  They are both from rv's that used 30 lb. bottles, as far as I know.  A guy who works with propane told me the regulators were all calibrated to handle either 20 or 30 # bottles, though.

This is a farriers rasp knife I made for a trade. It is a sygan dubh Scottish, or my interpretation of one anyway😁 the handle is some black walnut stained with an ebony stain. Two piece handle and hidden tang. I got a hold of a Scottish issue schilling coin and inlayed it in the handle. For heat treat always take a piece of the tang when using a file and heat it to non magnetic and then about two mins past and quench in oil, then hit it with a hammer, it will break if it just bends it didn't harden. If not hard go through the same process and quench in water if it won't break it won't harden properly and find another use for it. With these rasps I have found a 2 sec water quench then straight to the oil is a safe method that hardened

bubby:
I double posted the coin  I guess
