Default New torch

I will be ordering a new Bobcat soon. Would appreciate comments on which supplier will do the best job for me and my wallet. These days customer service means as much as money to a great extent. My wife just ordered a Nortel Minor from Franz Art Glass and is satisfied, especially with the little surprise she recieved.

Any thoughts will be appreciated.
Thanks...Bo Whalen

Wale does not sell the Bobcat (anymore). They do, however, sell a torch copied from the Bobcat's design. The funny thing is, though, that the copy is more expensive and does not perform as well.

There are several distributors who carry Bobcats (myself included). FlameTree is in Georgia (close to you) and they carry GTTs. You might want to call them.

I highly recommend kbinkster. I ordered my Lynx from her and I had it to me in 2 days. She has also contributed much to this forum in the way of information and assistance and I'm sure if there were any questions or problems she would be of great help.
