Snugged up the packing nuts on the valves on my Prestolite, and it's like a whole new torch. Cut off a hunk of half inch plate and a piece off the end of a 3/8's web 4" I beam, slicker than a smelt.

Darn good thing, too. I priced new torches...":^(

Hey F14, Glad the torch is working for you. What kinda prices did you find? I like to stay current with reality, I think!

At McMaster-Carr, a "medium duty" Victor handle and cutting head would run about $200 before shipping. I didn't see anything that specifically identified it as the Victor 100 that you mentioned, but I'd expect it was close.

That must mean they want about $400 for a complete set. Victor has several models too choose from. I looked at the Victor website and there listed as a medium duty FC100. Victor sure has a crapy website!

Didn't take long to decide to look elsewhere. McMaster-Carr is a little better, at least they have some prices...
