The Carbonizing Flame for Brazing

I like your advice and your videos, but why don't you wear gloves? What do you recommend to new O/A users?

Most of what i do is very small work. I would lose dexterity if I wore gloves. Best advice is "if it is hot, don't pick it up". In over forty years of working with the torch I have only had one bad burn.

Your question: "What do you recommend to new O/A users?" Can you be more specific?
