>     Yes your little torch can be used with oxy/propane. 

    As Greg stated, "A fine little torch."  I use mine for fully 95% of
    my soldering needs, mainly wire woven rings and chains.  As he also
    stated: the smallest tips, with the synthetic ruby tips do not work
    with propane (LP).  When I need a very fine, controlled flame a
    friend lets me borrow a small acetylene tank so I can use the
    smallest tips.  And when I need a brutish flame for large surface
    areas or projects she lets me come to her studio and use her big
    rig.  We often trade a lot of tools, but she is a very special
    woman, whom I have known for more than fifty years.  It also might
    help that we both occasionally enjoy a snifter of old brandy
    together. 

Respectfully,
J. Russell
