Penny,

    The minor torch is a much smaller flame working torch for
    lampworking than a Red Max - the difference in price is a clue to
    this. You will want to work with a neutral flame for borosilicate (at
    least to know where the neutral is) and that is the place where there
    is no hissing and where there is a 

    minimum of yellow candle ends to the flame. I haven't worked much in
    Boro as it's a slow process on a minor - the lampworking torch I own. 

    The ISGB site (www.isgb.org) would be well worth your visit if you
    are lampworking and I suggest you ask your question there for more
    information than you will need. Orchid is a great place too - it just
    has a slightly 

    different slant to it's expertise. 

Sadie
