i use a "wood burning iron" with my oil spoon.

it works, but scares me to have it laying around plugged in. it could get a little hotter and i wouldn't mind either.

need something like an old school car lighter. something the gets glowing red hot. i'm still looking.

I just bought a 5 pack of lighters from Walmart for $1.47. I will have lighters for the next month or more.

I used to heat titanium plate to RED HOT in 1:30 or less with my little propane hand torch. Spend $75. Ain't my money. I have watched my buddy heat his nail to RED HOT as well with my torch I got at Lowe's. Try waiting more then 15 seconds? I dunno. I know it works from experience.

Both those do and they aren't $75. Your choice. The $25 works bomb.

Hey update-bought the Nitro (it has lifetime warranty) hands down a amazing torch-haha heats that nail like 5 seconds-maybe ten! Great investment!
