I'm trying to build a pipe burner for my 36" SS rust blue tank. I've always just put it on the top of the stove, but it's not a welcome thing in the kitchen.

I took a 36" x 3/4" pipe and drilled it with (32) 1/8" holes. My venturi and jet are from my 100,000 btu turkey fryer burner and it is 3/4" NPT. So I went with 3/4" pipe.

My problem is that the flame separates from the tube and blows out unless set at extremely low flow. I tried chamfering the holes to no help. Did I put too large holes in there? Too big or small jet?
