    This torch holder is the second most essential tool at Earthspeak Arts, attention to safety being the first. The holder is hand forged right here in Western NC. It is designed to hold the common Prestolite, Uniweld, and Goss type torches. It will also work for the Smith Air torch. The cradle angle is adjustable. The support column can be fastened to your bench by “C” clamp, screws, or bolts (none furnished). This holder will also let you work hands free for those special jobs like headpins. It is your responsibilty to be sure that the flame is not pointed at anything flamable. Have a fire extinguisher handy too!

    Custom made holders are also available. Please contact us for your needs.
