Handle and Heating Options


Don't forget a handle if this is your first time ordering a brand from us

All of our brands are designed to be held with one of our standard handles
And you can heat the tip up with any torch (we recommend a propane or MAPP torch), open flame or an electric hot plate, 
(Heating the brands with hot coals isn’t recommended but possible, just don't leave your new brand sitting too long!)

If you order a brand that is 1.5" across or smaller you can also heat the tip with an electric Weller 80 watt soldering iron.
(Most "standard" soldering irons are 20-40 watts and will not provide enough power for anything over 1/4" or so, which is why we design our brands to fit this model, typically used for stained glass window making)
