Welding Torch Fueled By MAPP and Propane Gas For Soldering, Glass blowing, Jewelly

The media could not be loaded. Solid brass looks very healthy, not weak in any way. Highly adjustable flame hard to vary soft. I own 5 torches this by far will be the best. Only draw back is it dose not have a self starter, but big deal!! Whats the big deal the flame is. It heats fast. And If I were you Id also get an extension line with it perhaps for a BBQ tank too. Cant say enouph about the price and quality. Will see how it handles time... will tell. Get one!

It gets hot enough to easily melt glass

Okay I want to love the torch but the little metal collar used to adjust airflow to the flame is flimsy and mine warped. It's not the biggest issue, I tried to bring it back to true with pliers but didn't have any luck. Being wrapped makes the flame tip a little less clean and a little less defined. It lets too much air leak into the system but not so much that it makes a huge difference. It's easy to use but the dial is touchy; you think you have the flame just how you want it then let it go and it goes out or comes blasting out. You have to make sure you don't push or pull the knob as you adjust otherwise you run that risk. It's worth the price and looks nice. The flame can get pretty hot and has a good length to it when you open it up. I'd buy it again.

Great little torch for hobby projects.

I bought another one just in case! That good.This thing is outstanding for the price. I didn't see anyone mention adjusting the small hex screw on the underside of this... The part that actually makes contact with the propane cylinder. Adjusting that makes a huge difference. I have to adjust it if I change elevation, to get the output I want.Not a precision torch, but it gets pretty small. It'll melt glass no problem and it'll get a piece of rebar red hot in a couple minutes.The thin metal oxygen snuffer that's wrapped around the shaft will rattle and fall off. Tosd it and buy a propane camp stove if you want that kind of flame .. this is a TORCH!A 5 to 8 foot propane adapter hose and a 5 gallon propane tank reaches into small spaces and lasts days. Put a 1/4lb refillable propane tank on it and you have a full strength pocket torch!Get one before they're gone. Heck get 3!

Works better than I expected. Quality made, able to run for extended periods of time with out much heating of the torch or the cylinder. Was able to light with just the spark off a cigarette lighter. Using a striker works perfectly.

It does put out some serious heat, even using LPG instead of MAPP. However, the on/off valve is extremely temperamental, making it dangerous, especially for beginners.

It gets hot while using it, that's not great. Otherwise I think it's a good torch.
