Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
so.. i finally got my compact hooked up =) my small torch's line decided to break.. weird.
anyway, eric, if you have a ferrule/hose clamp that's small enough for these hoses, i'd take a couple. if not, no sweat.
get at me for the adapter/ price! or my machinist will have to frankenstein one for me.
i don't think i'll be able to get the compact tips into my marbles.. but.. haven't tried yet!
thanks meow

Sorry Seth, I somehow missed this.
I don't have any ferrules in stock but I will try and get some extras sent with my next order.
As far as the adapter, I haven't been working much on it lately as I have been so busy. I have a working prototype, but you have to make sure it is tightened down right or else it will leak. I need to make sure I have a fool proof connection before I start releasing them to the public. Seeing as you have a machinist handy, your best bet might be to just have him do it for you. PM me and I will give you some details and get you figured out either way.
Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
So I ordered the compact from Eric on wednesday and it came in the mail today (friday). Got it all hooked up on y's off my bravo and it works great. Its a sweet little torch and I was stoked on how fast it shipped. Thanks Eric!
Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
I love mine, can't wait for shelbos, or a tight multi port tip to fit this lil beast!
Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches

Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
Are there other attachments available for the mini? Other than what came with the set?

Yes, there are many aftermarket options available for the Small Torch. Try the Hornet tip, blastshield 5 or 7 hole, or the Shelbo line from ARTCO. Many people prefer the hornet for most tasks but I have heard good things about all of them. Just be prepared, the tips are almost as much as the torch!
Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
Just a lil heads up - I will be doing a Small Business Saturday sale on both Gentec models that will start tomorrow and run through Monday. If you have been wanting a Gentec, these prices will be the lowest I offer all year.

Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
I've been loving this compact, Eric. The extended tip is perfect. I had to file the tip out a little to keep it for blowing out. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...7c290ddd3d.jpg

Re: Gentec Compact Torches and Small Torches
Hey every one im just getting started in the glass world i have my thermal fiber blanket , shaper , graphite pusher and my boro tubing. My question most likely isn't a smart one but its a need to know i can't afford a Bethlehem or a bobcat. At the moment so do you guy's have any suggestions on what els to use like the torech tanks or acetylene welding torches ? The flame is the last thing i need to know if someone can help that would be awesome thanks
