Wow, those are really interesting looking, especially the gold one! I am not sure how safe they are, with PVC bonded to ABS...

the big one is very cool, I'll trust you on the connection, it looks very cool and fun. I surprised you could get 6" pvc but not 3"pvc
only thing I don't like is the cheap stick lighter ignition, but the handle is good

and the smaller one is nice, but the handle looks backward :lol:

the ignition on the big one is actually from a propane lantern and it is pretty struddy. i know the handle looks backwards on the smaller one but i like the way it feels and it makes it easier to push the button with my thumb
