Post by: Pilot5517 on December 07, 2010, 03:18:56 pm

Ok guys, what blowers are you using for your burners and where in the world do you get them?  I really hate to buy new....

Thanks,

Paul

I'm using a hairdryer now and it works well.  But, it too loud on high.  After awhile working around it, it really gets obnoxious.  I've seen a lot of guys using some sort of small squirrel cage blower plugged into the end of their pipe.
