Gas Torch

[fenman]

I have a gas torch which i have fitted a Y piece on the inlet..one side gas and the other to a small compressor with a regulator and pipe in air with the gas at 2-3 psi...You will be very surprised how much hotter the flame front becomes. Its not something new as you must of seen the road workers using a long lance type torch that sounds like a pulse jet and the shroud glows red hot while burning off old road markings, that is just propane and compressed air from a big towable rotary compressor...

Thanks Brian will give it a go

Depending what size jet you have in your torch might determine if you need to change or play around..I used a jet out of a big lance torch for the small hand torch as the lance have bigger flow rates..And we are talking Sievert torches here too.
