A ten dollar tubing cutter, a fifteen dollar flaring tool, and a three dollar little bottle of spray-on leak detector, plus some 3/8" soft copper tubing, and a couple flare fittings and shutoffs and someone who is determined to do it correct and safe can definitely get it done.
To erase any self-doubt, call your propane supplier and ask them to do a pressure test after your own installation work on your own residence is complete. You can be sure that the propane service guy who does the pressure test will also be right there to point out anything unsafe, and offer to repair it for $103/hour Amerigas-Laconia labor rate.
If you were unaware, propane is very similar to gasoline except that is is a gas and not a liquid, after it leaves the big propane storage tank at your house.
