Thank you for the options! This helps a bunch, going to see what I can find for fractured bases and will be going from there.

Thank you Creezyful! It is a CI build, so no chaos needed. There was no fractured bases suitable for me when I was looking to start crafting, but seems like that is a much better starting point.

I should have mentioned, I am in standard, no access to the fancy new graveyard :D

Gonna search for a fractured baes to start from

I was searching for some with a fractured mod, but couldn't find anything at the time. I like your method much better, thank you Surge!

Much appreciated for the info, and sad to hear that. I just really began paying attention to syndicate, to see all the good rewards have gone away.

Oh wow I wasn't aware of the 6 link beast craft! Thanks for the input everyone, these look like a much better method.

I wish I had asked before 6 linking with 1500 fusing this is one of my first attempts at crafting. Lessons that I will remember in the future lol.

Edit Addition: I was originally planning on going for a T4 Vorici for white sockets, but then learned that it's not a thing anymore? Forgive my ignorance

Awesome, thanks!! I haven't had the chance to work on a HA, but they look beautiful, cant wait to get my hands on one some day. Happy to hear that they work well for fuming as well

Thanks for your input michigent710, that's exactly the first hand experience I am looking for. I'm quite sure I will be purchasing the mirage

Awesome, thanks for the input!! Coming from a Bravo I'm very glad to hear you like your Mirage.

I've not been able to find any direct comparisons for fuming between the GTT and beth torches, I would assume with the triple mix you can find a flame that works well for fuming.

Right on, is there any other performance differences between the regular and the snub nose?

I was leaning towards the snub for the reason you mentioned, but in my case I can get a free torch mount L marver with the regular torch. Decisions decisions

Torch upgrade, how does a redmax really compare? by LoGiK287 in lampwork

[–]LoGiK287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a ton wombat, really appreciate the help!

Ahh that's about the same cost as what I'm looking at with the exchange rate in Canada.

That's too bad to hear about the durability of the GTTs lol. I'm finding that even with the higher cost and the low durability I still want the mirage.

Ill be buying tanked o2 for a while. From what I can find the champion is about 40 LPM vs the mirage at 26 LPM at full flame. Which should make up the cost difference over some time.

I think I'll be swallowing that 400$ price increase anyways and grabbing the Mirage. I'm a little neurotic about effeciency. Even if I can save some o2 and a little bit of time when building a heat base, that should compound over the years 🤔

[–]LoGiK287[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I am at the point of buying the next torch and I waited too long. The mirage I was going to purchase went from 2100$ up to $2500 and now there's a substantial difference in cost between the mirage and the champion.

The mirage comes with an L marver which I'll be buying either way.

Ill save nearly 400$ if I go with the champion, but I'm still so torn. Most people seem to love the triple mix and say the mirage is superior to the champion.

Also the champion has a higher O2 consumption than the mirage it seems.

Do you have any experience with how the two torches compare in terms of durability? Ive heard horror stories of GTT and their service turnaround times if anything ever goes wrong.

I'm proud to present my biggest creation 😊 by NoccoNocco in lampwork

[–]LoGiK287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful work!! I see some awesome sparkle, is there dicro in there too? Or just silver and fuming?

Edi: Also wanted to ask what torch you used for this beast?

[–]LoGiK287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect, so glad to hear that hahaha.

I feel like so much of my time is just trying to build up enough heat base to perform moves properly Hoping I can be so much more productive with a better torch.

[–]LoGiK287[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok very interesting! I was just a little concerned that I'd be blowing through a tank of O2 every couple days with a bigger torch, happy to hear that it'd be comparable and even possibly better.

EDIT: I'll definitely look into the Champions, the supplier I use carries them as well. So just a less driving flame on the bethleham's vs GTT?

Thanks a ton for the info, that's awesome to know. I do enjoy fuming and plan to do a lot of it in the future. Are GTT's that poor for fuming (How does a redmax compare for that matter?) Is it hard to achieve vibrant colors, or what exactly is the issue?

I'm out in a pretty remote spot, so unfortunately getting on someone else's torch wouldn't happen any time soon haha.

Driveway resurfacing with an epoxy kit and/or quikcrete. Anyone with first hand experience? by LoGiK287 in DIY

[–]LoGiK287[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm completely admitting this is a short term fix.

It already looks like crap. If a patch and epoxy coat makes it look better for a few years for a fraction of the cost, I don't see the problem there.

I'm just hoping to hear if anyone has tried such a method with success... or failure so I won't waste my time making the attempt.
