Thanks Charles. I made a cheap coffee can forge and have been using a simple torch head with extension hose to a 20lb tank for the first few modules. It's working, but its time to upgrade. I'd prefer to just purchase a burner from someone who has experience with building them. In those first few modules, I have made some tools already! Chisels and bending forks etc. I have a few found blacksmithing tools as well. Just need a bigger chamber than what I have, and more BTUs than this silly torch can put out lol. It looks like T burners on eBay with a reg are like 40-60$.While an Atlas 100k burner with reg is like 60-80$. Is there anyone who has compared the 2?

Hello gang. I'm new and have been reading as much as I can through the stickies. I am picking up a burner as a Bday present for myself. Chamber size for the forge I am building will be between 150 and 250cui. I am making the forge out of a 40mm ammo can. I am taking the Essential Craftsman class online, and plan on making small trinkets and knives. My question is have you guys taken a look at the Atlas burners? They have a 30k BTU and 100k BTU burner. Would I be good to pick up one of those or should I grab a frosty t 3/8" or 3/4" from eBay? Or is there a better location to pick one up? I want the reg and 1/4 turn ball valve too. Thanks for any info and pointers!
