Default Please help

I would like a boro set up.. I need a torch and generator or concentrator for medium size boro pendants. My budget would allow me to spend $2500 to $2700. I want it to melt boro with ease. What would be the best set up I could get for the money?

Thank you for your help
Robin

You could grab a Lynx for anywhere from $350- $475, and kilns are always around, I recomend an AIM kiln. I think there is a genny bulk buy deal goin on some where on this forum..

Robin,

You could look into the toolbox style kilns, they would hold a bunch of medium sized pendants. I think the most cost-effective set-up is the national torch, you can get them for about $60. You'd also need flashback arrestors too, and the hoses/regulators for them. Try the nat'l tho, I think it's a great buy.
