I was thinking about buying one of the propane torches at Harbor 
Freight (the fire breathing robotic scuptures in the Maker Faire San 
Mateo pics were inspiring). I think Tom D bought one of these a few 
years ago. It looks like all I would need to get one going would be a 
propane tank and a pressure regulator (maybe high pressure)? I 
scanned over the outside of the package but did not see anything 
about what was necessary to operate it. Does anyone know what extra 
parts are necessary?

Thanks,

I believe that Tom D. hooked his directly to the large propane 
tank.  If I remember correctly, he was attempting to incinerate a 
funnel cake at the old Robowarehouse.  The funnel cake was more 
recalcitrant than the underlying asphalt.

There are a couple of models ... one with and one without the 
igniter.
