So just add that to the pressure of the
propane which someone suggest was at least 200 psi


No, more like 26 psi (0 deg F), 122 psi (70 deg F), or 190 psi (100 deg F).

I suppose now someone will ask, "hey, can I use my propane tank to run my
air tools without a compressor?"


Sure -- until the first spark. :-)

A die grinder with front exhaust would be an interesting
experience -- outdoors. :-)

Something else -- indoors -- might be the last thing you do.

Or -- a die grinder with rear exhaust would really call for
Nomex work clothes. :-)

Enjoy,
DoN.
