  1. Hah. Yeah, that's what I was wondering. I've run into issues a few times with the QCC ones on our homebrew burners. Our weed burner has a POL on it, so I assumed that was the best way to go. Thanks!
  2. Thanks again Frosty! Looks like Amazon has it for $25. Any thoughts on Type1 QCC vs POL for the tank connection? The QCC one sound a bit "safer", but wasn't sure if the high/excess flow protection was overly annoying when forging.
  3. I'll have to check with our propane supplier. I wasn't sure if there were any decent brands for parts or ones to avoid? I've got a propane weed burner, but it has a fixed 18PSI regulator on it with a needle valve for adjustment. It does a pretty nice job killing weeds though :).
  4. Thanks for the info! I'll hold off using the TS8000 since I have everything for a 1/2 Frosty-T. Any suggestions for a decent 0-20 or 0-30 regulator & hose? Apparently all the ones on Amazon fail if the comments can be believed :).
  5. Also good to know. I've got a Bernzomatic TS8000 torch I'll likely start with just to see how it does. I had planned on doing a Plistix coating, but I might do that later just to see if I can tell any difference. Thanks again!
  6. Thanks Frosty! I'm trying to make something similar with 6 bricks - 2 IFBs on top and bottom and 1 (horizontal) for each side. That's good to know that a 1/2" Frosty-T burner should work out.
  7. Frosty, just curious if these 6-brick forges from your photo are using 1/2" or 3/4" size Frosty-T burners? Based on the 3/4" for 350 cu/in rule of thumb it seemed like a 1/2" burner might be enough for ~150 cu/in, but then I looked at the forge on Zoeller's page and he's using his 3/4" side-arm I believe. Thanks!
