Oh, I am sorry! But I am sure many people prefer a written tutorial that they can print out and have beside the torch.

very clear, thank you for sharing.

Just wondering what sort of torch are you using? It seems to melt glass 10 times faster than my minor!
Now I can play all day as I retired from the 'proper' job....

Hi!
No, it doesn't. I just edited out the boring bits...
I use a Carlisle Hellcat.

I wondered this as well.....it makes my hothead look so slow!

Thanks for sharing.

afina

Well, in comparison to a hothead...
The hellcat has 2 rings of flames. The center ring  is like the Carlisle Mini CC and the outer ring gives extra power. I use it with 2 oxycons. So yes, it is hotter and faster than the usual torches...
