I found this blog through Robin’s blog above. So did you ever decide on a torch? I have a Mega Minor and a GTT, not a cricket but a Phantom. I love both torches. I imagine the Cricket it similar to my Phantom except smaller. The nice thing about the mega minor is you don’t have to fiddle with the barbed fittings because the hoses just screw on. I really liked that feature. Most torches have barbed fittings though, even the original Minor.

Oh, and when you switch from the HH the big propane tanks last a very long time. I just bought my first refill after 4 months.

LOL… haven’t formally decided yet.

I’m leaning towards the Mega since Nortel is fairly local (in case of repairs/maintenance) plus long time bead makers keep telling me how great and versatile their torches are – but i can still be swayed…

So what’s the decision? Inquiring minds want to know!

Hi! I found your blog through wordpress.

I’d go for the cricket – but then I’m an American (not that you aren’t, it’s just that is how we refer to ourselves down here – I honestly can’t think how else to say it – I’m a USAian?). Anyway, I tried one at the Gathering and it really is a sweet little torch.

Either way, you’ll have loads of fun!
