Default bunsen help

I would like to install a bunsen burner infront of my torch to keep the beads warm while I am working on detail stuff!
Does anyone know if the propane will make the glass dirty?
Is there a certain way to hook things up?

unless you add air, the propane will deposit soot. good idea but you cant do it directly. hook up something to put over the bunson burner that will hold the glass and you are in business

what kind of torch do you have? this should not be necessary, as you could just turn down your flame or work farther away from it. I would think that a bunson burner would be counter productive.
