Blow torch material kit

With this material kit you can make a blowtorch yourself. The blowtorch is model size and has a total height of 125 mm. The blowtorch is mostly made of brass. The handle and the handwheel for adjusting the flame size are made from the included oak wood. The finished blowtorch also works in the model just like an original blowtorch. You can use the torch for brazing, soft soldering, paint stripping and for operating glow tube igniter engines. Of course, this beautiful blowtorch is also suitable for the model making display case just to look at.

A blowtorch is a gas burner that was originally powered by gasoline or spirit. The blowtorch is not only used for soldering but also as a heating lamp for preheating glow-head engines. An alcohol-powered blowtorch does not start by itself but must be preheated. Due to the complicated handling, spirit and gasoline-powered blowtorches were replaced in the 1970s by blowtorches with butane as a fuel. The alcohol-powered blowtorch remains a fascinating tool to this day.

 All milled parts and all stamped parts (tank base and tank cap) are included in the kit ready-made. All turned parts are included in the delivery as raw material. Of course, as with all other Bengs model building material kits, you will also receive all the necessary sealing elements, screws and fiberglass wicks. A 0.38 mm drill is required to build this kit. The drill is also included in the kit.
