Greetings, A while back an Orchid member wrote about the Precision LP
Gas Torch(German torch). Has anyone else in the US bought this and
had success?
I currently have a Smith Acetylene/Air torch with all the tips, but
I often struggle with it trying to get the metal up to temperature
fast enough. I read back through the archives, where this one is
often recommended, but I can’t seem to get the heat out of it. It’s
ok for little things. Maybe I am not using it correctly. Sometimes
when I first light it, the flame will shrink in size after a few
seconds.
I have propane/oxygen tanks and a welding torch with rosebud tip
that I use for melting. I would like a propane/oxygen torch that is
good for everything from the soldering the small stuff to melting. I
store my propane tank outside, so I think I have the safety issues
covered.
Thanks for any suggestions! Margaret
