Brian talks about Habermann bends.

A few of my tongs are like that, i think i drifted the hole a little too big. 

A steel bow is made on one of the Man at Arms episodes on Youtube. It might have some useful information.

Bought a thread tap and put a .9mm (.035") mig tip in the plug. 

Photo is of 3/4" burner. I know I know "just follow the instructions to make a  T burner" maybe after a few more fails.

But how's this?

The elbow keeps the flame on the torch as well as a coupler seemed to and I liked that I could mount it with the gas line well away from the forge. 

I looked at T burners again, didn't realise the jet moved in and out. Thought  it was tuned with pressure and choke. I guess my chokes redundant then if its too rich. Do T burners and sidearms usually have the jet past the air intake so the air is sucked in from behind the jet?

I can't get black iron here but i'll put in vinegar.

I made this gas torch and wanted a second opinion. The one  running in the forge is 15mm(1/2 inchish) the other torch 20mm(3/4 inch) can be screwed onto the same jet assembly. It heats the forge ok but was wondering about the air/gas mix tuning(I've put a choke on since taking the photo). I rearranged the forge since this photo as well because i think my ratio was out it was 140cu/in with the 1/2 inch burner
