Gaseous emissions

 

O gauge kits mean big lumps of brass, and for soldering these together, there's nothing better than a small gas torch. Using one allows me to blow solder along any joint, with the stuff running like water. 

Digging out my torch, I noticed it was emply of gas. Not a surprise, it's ages since I'd used it. What was a surprise, was when I filled it up, the gas started leaking from the joint between the handle and clear section. 

There's no obvious was to get in here and fix anything, so I've been looking at Screwfix for a replacement. I'll let you know how I get on with this.
