    Hi, I have been a member on IFI for three years and had problems logging on and had to lose my original account and start a new one!
    I have been blacksmithing since 2009 as a hobby.
    It has become a passion for me and I light the forge in any spare time I have.....simples.

  1. Been trying to post this about your propane torches but the post never shows up?  Deiced to send you a PM

    Just a few ideas thought might help.

    Here is a good video on using a propane torch by smith equipment.

     

    When I set up my propane cutting torch I did a lot of research, not a lot of information out about propane cutting torches. I'm lucky because I have a real good local welding shop. Here is a few things I learned.

    My shop put a more sensitive spring in my gas regulator because propane runs at a lower presure.

    You should have a hose rater for propane and other gasses a little more money then a stander hose.

    Not all torches can be used with propane, something to do with the way the torch mixes the gas. The welding shop explained it to me but when over my head. 

    You need a special propane tip. For my victor torch they are GPN Series (Propane/Nautral Gas) tips.

    Gas pressure charts are different for propane compared to Acetylene.

    Hope things are working better.
