Who has tried the Red Rocket??

[joebirder]

I am trying to find some feedback on the Nortel Red Rocket..
I currently use the Redmax and hate the minor burner on top and the fact of having the two separate torches. From what I have read the inner flame on the Red Rocket it much more focused and better for boro work. Can anyone give a testimony? I reached the forum and couldn't find anything on the Rocket. I don't know, I must just like red.. Anyway, If anyone can shed any light on this or knows of a studio where I can go try one, Let me know as I would love to try one before I buy one...
Thanks, Joe

I would say if you have worked on a CC....you will take to one right away. I tried one of the prototypes before they had been released and they are great torches...and not to mention Jean had mentioned they have both premix and surface mix center fire designs so the best of both worlds there.

~Enjoy!

You'll like the Knight or the Carlisle better I think. Nothing against the Red Rocket at all, but I honestly think you'd be happier with one of the others.

I just know right now, I'm discusted with the minor on top of my redmax.. It is aweful on my colors when working the marbles due to the lack of oxy rich/neutral hot flame...
just trying to come up with some ideas of what to go with as soon as I am ready to get rid of this one...
