propane weed torch

: wrote in message ... well I tried exactly what you are suggesting and the flame just kept going out. Ingrid And if you tried it with 100 other hand held propane torches with the angled burner attached directly to the can, they would all go out too. They would all flood the flame when used upside down. Tom J Did you try turning the flow rate adjustment knob until you got a steady flame? It's not just an open-close valve. This was probably 15 years ago, so I don't know about any new fangle doodads on propane tanks (like the OPC(?) valve on ones for grills), but IIRC, the one I used was just a angled burner attached to a ~12" long, 3" diameter cylinder, and was used, valve side down to either burn crap off the floor or to heat vinyl bathroom tiles so that the glue holding them to the floor would 'melt' making them easier to pry up. Chances are that the house wasn't turned upside down so that the torch could be used upright and I'm sure I didn't have some sort of contraption to reroute the gas. |
