I suppose both would be leaky hoses, flashback etc.

I chuckled when I read this because this is still me! I check my hoses, connections, torch knobs for leaks with glass cleaner and a brush for bubbles pretty often. I read too many horror stories in the safety section. I won't read any more for the rest of my life!

Next is shocky glass.

Funny, I was just thinking the other day, I should be over these fears by now. But the reality is that I'm not. Oh well. I still love watching glass melt.
