propane burner regulator

[ChrisChatelain]

I was at the hardware store today, and I saw a propane regulator for a camp stove, that goes between 0 and 15 psi, perfect for mr. riel's ez burner

it looks like it'll fit right on that pipe nipple, but the end that would screw on there looks like it has a tire valve stem end on it (push in a little pin to open the valve etc.)except that the threads are on the inside to screw onto the burner ...

I wanna make myself a propane forge some day, and do it cheaply, and this regulator is in my price range, and fits my barbeque tank to boot...
any ideas on how I can get this thing to attatch to that 1/8 pipe nipple without that valve closing?

what about safety issues? I like my eyeballs

priced at $35 canadian....I think we're at .67 usd right now...is there a better alternative?
