RE: [balloon-makers] HPII Burner for hopper?

["Kasey Schwemmer" <private e-mail address>]

Many thanks to all for input on the burner. I will look into it some more, probably go check it out in person and determine then if it will work for me. I know it has been well cared for, so no worried there.

Now go fly! (I haven't gotten to for a looonnnggg time and I'm having serious withdrawl...)

Hi Kasey and others..

The HP II that I use works well..

I use it on a bicycle rim.. But I suggest you put an additional set of 
springs.

each connection point on the ring will have 2 springs, one goes Horizontal 
to the burner, the other at a 45 degree  down to the burner can.

I find that this will correct any extra top heavy movment, and the blast 
valve body is used for dirrection......
have fun...

I have not been on the list for some time???

I was with out my computer and HOME..

Now I have a nice big ware house and a new home attached....the house part 
will be ready in a few weeks then I can set of the SHOP...

I hope every one had a great Holiday season.

Wild Bil EH!!!

NO snow or cold this winter..

But I am in the process of building a erupting volcano for the 
winterlude..1st three weeks of Feb.
