Hello Snoopdog and thank you for your reply. I am so new to this that I am mostly unfamiliar with much of the terminology. I'm not sure what a two stage torch is but maybe that is an oxygen and gas mix? The term led me to a search and I found myself at
Corina's site. She loves the Carlisle Mini CC and I am leaning in that direction. I am planning my studio, and want to make the best choice that I can in a torch, one that will serve me for longer than near term. I make and sell beadwork, jewelry as well as small sculptural pieces. I've also recently begun venturing into woven wire jewelry and would like to be able to eventually incorporate lampwork beads into my pieces. Again, thank you. Claire
