Im looking for a Torch that can handle continuous use ( up 2 min) at about a 45 degree angle to apply heat to resin on a table top?

yes this torch will do the job quite nice... you can ajust the flame also from a fine to coarse tip for more precise heat distribution...

I have this same unit, and I just did this test. I turned it on with a medium blue flame, tilted it 45 degrees, and ran it for two minutes. No problems at all. It worked fine.

Search YouTube for "Everlast and C-K Worldwide Tig Torches" or call Everlast. Yes, it can be done and it's not hard...

I would say no. Your problem will be that the flame is a very precise, laser beam like flame. Extremely hot, and only being able to cover a very small area at a time.As well, this particular torch has not proven itself to be very reliable. My final assessment is to not purchase this torch.

There's a couple of problems with this idea, unfortunately. For one thing, this particular light has a halogen bulb, and has a duty cycle of 10 minutes on/10 minutes off to prevent overheating. It's not automatic, so you'd need two to keep one on at all times, and also, you'd need some kind of timed outlet device to alternate them. In addition, the duty cycle might be even shorter near a tree on the ground because of the decreased airflow. I used a light similar to this one at a party and had it sit on a table, and I smelled smoke only halfway into its duty cycle. It didn't actually flame up, but these do get really hot. Another thing, unless the tree is very skinny and bare, I doubt the light would be visible past the bottom. I've never used tinsel, but I don't know if the light would go anywhere to make it noticeable. It wouldn't be the same effect as traditional lights in the tree. If you still want to try, I'd at least recommend you search for an LED light; those run cool and the bulbs last for a much longer time.

you can also use a hot knife or soldering iron. less chance of burning and very neat ends.

Yes, in fact it that's about all I use mine for. I use this to test cast to find the right mixture of lead. I have a propane torch that I use to heat it up and it's great for testing out loads without having to wait for a 10 or 20 lbs lead pot to heat up. if you plan on using it over a fire, make sure the Dipper is firmly screwed onto the handle as it may loosen from time to time. You wouldn't want it to fall off full of hot lead. This lead dipper would also be great as a field lead smelter for hard core muzzle loaders.

Small open flame is good , all depends on the application.Keep the flame low and even then apply solder. good luck

The one I purchased CAME WITH A WATER COOLED TORCH. When I use the water cooled torch I must have a water flow through it. You could just use an air cooled torch. As soon as I go the unit I tried out everything. I cut 3/4" plate with the plasma, welded Full power DC TIG, and then tried it out on 0.030 6061 aluminum. It worked great...so far I've had no trouble with it.

Yes, that is what it is intended to use. This torch can use a mapp style gas or propane. Very good product. The only caution I have found is that if you dial back the gas flow it can overheat the tip/lighting mechanism. This torch is meant to be used in a "full" on heat setting only.

You have 5 sizes for the torch, you want the one that has the largest opening. Also check the pressue gages should be about 2 -5 pounds. Light with a match.

The flame of this particular torch is fairly broad. Seems like most glass burners generate more of a pencil flame. But if a broad flame will work for making beads, and the glass you are using is soda-lime, you're probably in luck.

Don't think you can interchange the tips this particular torch is made for sweating pipe and other things that require a high temperature

My unit completely burned out and no longer works at all. I used it to carve granite with diamond bits, It is not meant for heavy duty use

A heat gun, lighter or torch is adequate. With open flame methods avoid discoloring or burning the heat shrink tubes.

This is a "lantern battery" (big flashlights and the like. It would not be a good choice for a 70 watt heating coil. There aren't enough amp-hours stored, and source resistance would likely be way to high.

I'm not sure!!!! make sure you have the screw at the bottom for the torch turn to the max.
