turn down your oxygen bro.. you could actually get some heat to the piece. Hear that hiss? see the heat going aroung the piece and bouncing off? That is wasted gas and time! You need some good lessons man! Is there a glass school somewhere close?

dude, i hope you have flashback arrestors, because your breaking alot of safety codes, fire codes, and public ordinances by having propane indoors, and right next to oxygen, which wont end pretty if something happens.

otherwise, thanks for the tip!
