Laminar flow burner Flame Mode A

[@wood6454]

Hi check out The Hacksmith's latest lightsaber build it's the same thing as this (i think)

[@bradensinclair9517]

Aye, let's go. A fellow man of culture. I new I could find another video of someone using the Laminar flow nozzle. This is really all the hacksmiths lightsaber is and they didn't even make theirs, kinda disappointing.

@@bradensinclair9517 Yes but create a laminar gas flow is extremely hard, the one that Hacksmith are using are extremelly well manufactured with CNC and other machine (cost 4000$ (Check out bethlehem Burners ) ) . I am a member of a fablab wich has cnc and other high end machine and l'm looking to create one with oxy fuel. By the way @NOBOX7 great work !

Hacksmith bought his, this guy built one; way cooler. It was seriously his stopping point for the entire "lightsaber" build. I love seeing people make amazing things from scratch that work just as good as the commercial equivalent.

They're essentially the same, if you're talking laminar flow vs. a traditional torch. I wasn't at all impressed with the hacksmith "lightsaber", the dude just bought a torch right off the shelf and bolted some junk on there to make it look like a lightsaber. This guy fabricated and perfected a torch from raw materials, and in the process he made a torch that was very efficient at producing temps that are normally not achievable from a propane/air flame. The hacksmith channel makes some cool stuff but that was a bit of a letdown, especially when you consider there's probably tons of guys out there that use those torches at work and have been pretending they're lightsabers for years already.

[@arma3koth290]

do you reckon better flow could be achieved by putting fine steel wool behind the nozzle for a more even distribution of gas

@NOBOX7 Do you have a laminar burner for hydrogen gas and what do you use to stop flash backs?
