🔥💰 LOVE YOUR HOT HEAD TORCH BUT NOT THE RUNNING COSTS? 💰🔥

Calling all Hot Head beadmakers! 💎✨ If you're spending more and more time creating beautiful glass beads, those gas costs can soon add up! That's where our Hot Head Bulk Propane Gas Kit comes in. 🙌

Designed to let you run your Hot Head torch from a bulk propane (LPG) cylinder, this kit offers a practical alternative to repeatedly buying small gas canisters.

💰 WHY MAKE THE SWITCH?

🔥 Potentially Huge Savings – A 13kg propane cylinder can offer around 100 hours of use, depending on your setup and consumption.

💎 A Practical Alternative – Propane burns at a slightly lower temperature than MAPP gas, but can still be a useful option for Hot Head beadmaking.

🛠️ EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE KIT:

🔧 3.5 bar propane regulator
🛡️ Propane flashback arrestor
🔥 5 metres of propane hose
🔩 Torch connector

✨ The kit comes assembled, helping make setup more straightforward when connecting compatible equipment.

⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Use only with a compatible propane cylinder and Hot Head torch. Have the setup installed and checked in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable gas safety requirements. Check all connections for leaks using an approved leak-detection solution before use, and never use a flame to check for leaks.

💖 Spend less time worrying about gas costs and more time enjoying your beadmaking!

✨🎨 ADD TEXTURE, DETAIL & PERSONALITY TO YOUR CREATIONS! 🎨✨

Looking to add something extra special to your glass art, beads or sculptural pieces? 💎 Our Brass Texture Stamps are a fantastic tool for experimenting with patterns and adding beautiful details to your work!

🛠️ VERSATILE & FULL OF CREATIVE POSSIBILITIES!

Made from brass, these texture stamps can be used across a variety of materials, including:

🔥 Soft glass 💎 Borosilicate glass 🏺 Clay ✨ Silver clay and Art Clay 🎨 Polymer clay

💡 TOP TIP FROM TUFFNELL GLASS!

Of course, you can stamp across the whole bead or sculpture, but one of our favourite techniques is to apply the stamp right along the edge of your piece, with around a third of the stamp extending beyond the edge. This creates a really interesting effect and opens up even more creative possibilities! 😍

✨ Experiment with placement, play with patterns and discover your own unique style!
