I want to use a 10" Banjo style burner on a natural gas line. Any recommendations on where to start with my orifice size. I can't find a properly sized one in stock to save my life so I guess I am drilling it out.

Never tried their burner but man their minnow cost me a lot of money as a lad. It was a reaction lure that fish simply could not resist. Unless I was chunking it apparently.

check out the youtube video of someone who made a natural gas burner from a propane burner.

i built one just like the one he shows and it works great. brings up to a boil a 120g pot in 15 minutes and i have no jet, its a straight opening.

the gas line only has 2-3 lbs of pressure on natural gas so no restriction or jet is needed since its hardly anything. you run it with wide open gas line pressure so i used a simple open close valve like this for it

Home natural gas regulators keep gas pressure at 8” water column or about 1/3 lb psi.

Got a pack for Christmas one year along with a pack of Helicopter Lures. Wore out the golf course ponds across the road that morning. I reckon that was about 1993.

Start at an 1/8” and go up from there.

Here’s a chart. LINK
