Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bernzomatic 19527 ST900D Mini Torch
Customer Review: fantastic torch for the home jewelry studio
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't let the low price fool you. This is a fantastic torch setup for your bench at home. Combined with an inexpensive firebrick, a solder-rite board and/or charcoal block set on top of a shallow pan full of some heat-resistant material, which could be set on a rotating lazy susan type thing, all set on top of a heavy workbench covered with a big sheet of welding steel (less than $15 at your local home center), this torch will perform as well or better than a much more expensive two-tank system. It is easy and inexpensive to replace your propane tanks, which you won't need to do very often. I work in my basement with a window open.
The pointy flame is a dream come true. I have tried the torch tips and hoses available at the big box home centers, and they do not work nearly as well, though both work well enough to melt hard solder easily. But the nice small handpiece of this torch, which feels a lot like the handpiece of my flexible shaft machine, is ergonomically designed and very comfortable to hold, offering greater control. The torch is easy to light, but I'd like to mention some safety procedures my rocket scientist son taught me, which are not clearly indicated in the package directions. When you are done soldering a piece, turn off the handpiece first, then the tank, reversing the way you turned it on, which was tank first, then torch. After you turn off the tank, open the valve on the handpiece, wait for it to stop hissing, and then close the handpiece valve. This exhausts any gas remaining in the hose. It takes less than a minute, but that's how he was taught to do it in his college labs, so this extra step seems like a good idea to me. The torch is so easy to light with a striker that I've become completely comfortable using it, and use it many times each day. Before I got this torch, I was using a Blazer with triple-refined butane to make sterling, copper, and brass bezels. That works great, but this is even better, and it works fast -- be prepared for that solder to run sooner than you think it will. This tool is a great addition to my studio.
