Royce,
Cheap is relative of course, but I recently checked on a local price
for a good brand "turbo-torch" type set and I was surprised to find the
price has risen to well over $200.00, $245 for this one. The Goss set I
mentioned I bought about three years ago on an unadvertised "one-day" sale
at $125 down from a list of $165. I got lucky, I walked into the welding
supply looking to buy on that "one day." If you were to look I'll bet
Northen Tool or Harbor Freight or some such will have imported knock-offs
for considerably less that would last for a boiler or two, if you weren't
immolated upon lightup. :-)
Regards,
Harry
