looking now .. they all seem rather course tho..  thought you might have had a specific model in mind.

suppose could not be too hard to pipe air through copper tube with regular jewellers torch nozzle on end to reduce it to pinpoint..


thanks for the help

dude! nice cutting hehehe hope yr wife didnt mind too much lol

ok that answers that question.. i think ou are right .. a broader point , maybe pulsing...

many guys that polish wax do it with the tip of a waxpen.. basically a heated wire.. my next experiment would likely involve some sort of heated cutter.

thansk for all your effort on this man!
