Does anyone have any experience with this kit from Lowes?

I am interesting in it for hobby tinkering type stuff and of course brazing the tube chassis up.

Opinions?

Yes, I bought it and returned it 2 days later only because I was looking for a more precise flame. I am going to get a smith little torch. I think for what you get it is a pretty good deal though, just not what I was looking for.

get a self ignite MAPP gas torch. pretty much industry standard for tuber builds.

I have that torch, not bad for the price. If you do go that route... go to your local welding/gas supply and get the larger OXY tank. It's about $70 but you'll spend that in the smaller propane size bottles. and you get a whole lot more.
