  1. And yet you're all still going on about it...... Lol if mods could cancell my account that would be great as I can't seem to do it from mobile settings, and there seems to be nothing of value here for me. Thank you.
  2. Well Look who wants to Play "I made a quirky acronym" Here's one for you, SAD, Hope you can figure it out, there's actually two meanings to it but I expect you and your "years" of experience will be able to solve it.
  3. Years of experience or not, the Puritan attitude put forth with snide remarks are uncalled for. I'm not a blacksmith nor a professional in this field and got into building this for fun and to melt a little metal. I've always gone by the KISS Rule of thumb. After all It's not a piano I'm building here but this forum, or this experience with this part of it anyway, has made it un-fun. Its ok though, I appreciate anyone's help butt I'll be moving along respectfully. To those that enjoy the hobby, good luck and happy burning
  4. Oh, sorry, This pipe is a 3/4" nipple (Black pipe) and the nozzle is just for the abillity to hold the flame in the open. It will come off when introduced to the melting furnace
  5. Hi, it's not really that complicated, I did follow the torch set up as done by King of random in youtube. It's a simple burner for melting silver and gold and aluminum, the air intake has a double cap on the back side to adjust air/fuel mix. It's really pretty simple and not to sound harsh myself but too many make things too complicated when it's quite simple. I attached a photo of it burning now. It'll do just fine for my needs
  6. The burner is working fantastically with a .025 mg tip now. The jet tip sits where the tube and the reducing coupler meet so its positioned correct as far as I can tell and it's a 3/4" burner . No issues with set up now but thanks for the reply.
  7. LoL I know it looks bad but trust me, It was well away from and other source of combustion. Not sure my insurance would cover that So my problem wasn't the positioning of the jet, it was the jet itself. I went to a .025 from a .035 which was much too big and pushing way to much propane up the tube for this size of torch. I am however going to put an 8" tube on as well rather than the 6" as the torch heats up quite fast and I think a longer tube would help. Thanks for the help. It is much appreciated. Now on to the new melting furnace
  8. Thank you for the reply. I thought that might be the problem as when I soldered the jet and it's seat back in place it was sitting higher than previously when torch was working properly. I will try and post results.
  9. I am in need of some advise. I recently built a 1" propane torch that worked great at first, now I seem to be having an issue with the propane burning inside the tube close to the jet (.035 mig tip) and not at the end of it where it should be. It was before but after some adjustment of fixing a leak I'm now having this issue. here's some photo's of the torch and how it did burn but now flame is burning inside the tube as I said and close to the jet. is there a set point at where the jet should sit maybe to burn properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
