Yep, unlike most DIY torches, you get a nice, hot, and tight pencil frame, and auto-ignition, or off, at the touch of a button. Nothing DIY comes close.

...plumbing in our house and never added extra solder- a great invention for sure. The main benefit I find (with the assistance of a decent rothenberger torch as mentioned above) is the ability to solder one handed when joints situated in various cavities/under floorboards etc. In addition, with...

Because I had a lot to do I invested in a good quality Rothenberger torch and blue gas bottle. I believe having that, and being able to control the flame so well, helped me a lot (y)

I have a pair of rothenberg 15/22mm pipe benders. There is a few dots on the former. Am trying to figure out what to align with what to do a 90 degree bend. I had the old hilmor ones before. This had a line on the former were to pull the bend with to get a 90. Thanks

Great thanks. I have seen those but wondered if some are better than others, are they rothenberger ones. Tool station do theses https://www.toolstation.com/arctic-hayes-deburrer/p27781

...the brand known. It’s part of a bigger plan with bathroom furniture etc but getting a brand recognised is the main goal and I thought pipe slices would be good to start with but didn’t know you could get a kopex for £7. They’re the best slice I’ve had over the years, Rothenberger one of the...
