I'm told by a reputable NZ dealer that the Orca is ok for small mounts,
annealing the size of sheet I use for repousse, small scale fabrication
(say, up to the size of a large locket), small scale hollow form work and
chain making - the type of work you would expect of a small studio,
contemporary jeweller. I would appreciate any insight from anyone else
familiar with this type of torch. Are there any problems or limitations I
should know about before I buy? Until now I've used Primus. Changing torch
brands at this stage of life is a little like ending a marriage.
