Alright, im back and a lot has happend. As soon as i got back i was making rigs and it was late. I put too much silver on a rod and it rolled right onto my torch head
freaking out and trying to get it off for a long time, i decide to call an old friend that use to blow glass to see if i could use her torch. I get it.
after using it i realize this whole time my torch is the reason my welds suck. With this new torch it gets hotter and pin point flames that seal welds perfectly. Before i couldnt get tight flames and was heating up too much when welding. And it wasnt getting the right spots hot enough. So fuck a red max torch. Now i got welding skills and can start building rigs right. No janky welds. Its seriously night and day between the two torches. What ive needed for years. Needless to say the friend isnt getting the torch back. They havnt used it in years.
First thing i made was an inline rig. And tHe welds were like budder.
and i fixed my other torch. Its set up next to me.
I also have some bubble rigs with dome/curve set ups. All with my new diffy-rent downstems.
