Sky Mini Welding Torch

Indispensable for melting copper pipes, PVC, non-ferrous metal welding, glasswork or even lighting charcoal for a family barbeque, this portable hand torch does the job.  Simply load it with a butane gas tank (sold separately—don’t forget to include a tank or two with the torch) and it’s ready for ignition.

Definitely keep this away from the kids.
