[Jewelry making - Article 00028] - [Orchid] Torches, oxygen and water torches in the UK

    Hi all, I was wondering if anybody could offer me advice  due to a
    restructuring of EU laws on pressurised gas transport, it is no
    longer possible to buy Bernzomatic oxygen canisters in the UK, which
    is a shame as that is what I converted my Hoke torch to run on.
    Getting a proper O2 bottle is not really an option due to BOC's
    exorbitant bottle rental and delivery charges, and realistically I do
    not use enough. I could get a refurbished O2 generator (from
    http://www.tuffnellglass.co.uk/Beadmaking%20Equipment.htm) for 3250,
    which might be a good long term solution, but if I am going to start
    spending this much I would rather find a low cost used water torch
    (something I've coveted and looked for but been completely unable to
    find). Suggestions on good ways to proceed welcome.
