    Hi, Peter, Thanks for your suggestions about my Meco. The regulators
    are the ones supplied by Frei and Borrel with the torch, likewise
    the tips, specified for propane. I guess I should call them. The
    tips have one hole, and I've used only the smallest one, as the
    flame is very hot. But, yes, I am using the lowest possible
    pressure. I set it to 5 psi at first, and the pressure was so great
    that I got a HUGE flame, plus the gas came out so fast that it would
    accumulate in the few seconds it took me to light it (right in front
    of my strong vent) that I'd get a momentary fireball! At first, I
    chalked it up to never having used a Meco with propane, though I
    used NG at Revere. But, clearly, this is a little nuts! The next step
    needs to be to talk to the folks I bought it from, I reckon. -- Noel
