Open Source Gas-Oxygen Burner Torch
Contents
Basics
- A basic torch that burns a gas such as propane, methane, or hydrogen
- Used primarily for metal furnaces and forges, as well as ceramic or glass kilns
- This one uses a pure oxygen supply such as a tank, or generator
- Oxygen is added at the rear of the pipe, this is later mixed with fuel near the middle, it is then expelled and burned in a divergent nozzle
Used For
- High Temp Furnaces
- High Temp Forges
- High Temp Kilns (glass or ceramic)
- A really good BBQ (see this for a good idea)
Industry Standards

Existing Open Source Designs
Minimum Viable Product
- Easy to Produce
- Inexpensive
- High Temperature
- More consistent/controllable air flow due to forced air
- Can run at a higher temp/use more fuel due to the pure oxygen removing the limitation of air flow
Basic Design
- Same as the Open Source Gas-Pressurized Air Burner Torch, but it uses pure oxygen instead of pressurized air
