Am I the only one who fought with propane pressure for ages?

My flame was always uneven, ruining fine details on every item. After countless tries, I found the SWEET spot on the regulator valve. Now my beads are smooth and even, with zero cracks! This tiny fix feels like a HUGE win.

I mean, finding that sweet spot with the regulator was huge for me too, but idk, my beads still get those tiny stress cracks sometimes no matter what. Maybe it's just my particular torch or something.

Oh man, I used to be totally convinced those little cracks were just from my torch too. But honestly, switching to a way slower cool down, like putting stuff in the kiln way hotter than before, basically fixed it for me. Tbh I was leaving it in there too cool for way too long.

Those stress cracks @dakotac75 mentioned drove me nuts until I really matched my kiln temp to my glass.

Wait, your beads still crack even after nailing the regulator? Seriously thought that was the magic fix for everyone.
