Just got a bigger torch! YAY!

Ok, that's great news for me, but here's something really cool to share.

I managed to get a nice ball of some 18g copper and realized that the ball is black and ugly and I don't have any pickle. So.... I put it in my ionic SpeedBrite and it worked perfectly to get rid of the firescale. I was pleasantly surprised. All I had to do was scotchbrite afterwards and shine with a cloth. I'm super stoked. No pickle pot.

That sounds like a lot less hassle!! What torch have you got Tela? Was it a Christmas pressie?

It's a propane torch with a fine tip. www.worthingtoncylinders.com/Products/Consumer-Products/Worthington-Pro-Grade/Hand-Torches/WK2201-Kit.aspx

The kids got remote control helicopters for the house and I thought it best to put the torch away yesterday. I haven't played much more with it since then. Next time- silver.

Oh and yes, my DH gave me the money for the express purpose of buying a torch of my choice for Christmas. I have some left for tools, but haven't decided what to get next.
