Driving me crazy

Don't need one. A cheap plumbers torch from Walmart (20 bucks) is what I use 90 percent of the time on stuff like this. It uses the little pre filled propane tanks they sell for camp stoves. Works great for stuff like this as it'll heat it enough to start turning red but not enough to melt it. Perfect for under the car too.

i keep one of those handy by my firepit
perfect for starting bonfires
