Default Accessories for a Betta?

I'm all a tingle over getting my Betta torch, so I'm thinking about accessorizing. Am I correct that it takes quarter inch hoses for propane and oxy? Is anyone selling a torch mounted ghraphite pad for a Betta, yet? I haven't seen one, but that's not saying much.

Thanks!

Boxfan Willy... He makes some marvers for GTT's that would fit... they rock so hard!!!! You can adjust the marver flat, no matter how your torch barrel is pointed.

Thanks, Mr. Smiley! Is there a website for Boxfan Willie? I tried googling him and I came up with lots of hits for a music album by Steven Jackson LOL!
