Jerry, A few years ago I saw a fellow at Lake Hodges who had modified a Radio Shack butane soldering iron by attaching about an inch diameter copper disk to the tip. He used it to successfully apply a patch of a few square inches. Temperature control wasn't great - especially in the wind. As I recall, the disk was pretty thin for rapid heat-up. I think more thermal mass would be beneficial. Steve Kerrin, Escondido, CA > Jerry Craft wrote: > > > > I have seen many portable things powered by butane or > > propane.
