Don't try this at home, boys and girls. >> [laughter] >> My hand that close, there's no heat at all. You you might have had a situation where you've turned your torch off, you've lent across the nozzle, you've burnt your hand on or you've knocked the blow torch down and it's fallen on a bit of carpet. Yeah, so I wanted to create a blow torch that was that much safer. So, inside that nozzle I put a chrome and ceramic sleeve that creates a thermal barrier between the flame and the nozzle. And the result is this. Literally, that's been going the whole time we've been talking. You've all done it where we've dropped flux and solder in the end and you're there trying to dig it out or the solder goes in and it melts inside and you're like if you drop flux and solder in our nozzle, you unscrew that. >> And this ain't hot, guys. Like he's still handling it. Yeah, the flux and solder will fall onto that diffuser. Even if you get flux on there before the solder, the solder won't adhere to the diffuser because the diffuser is not hot. The solder on there will be a dry blob that you'll just tap off and put it back together and you've got no downtime whatsoever.
