[balloon-makers] HPII Burner for hopper?

[B Whelan]

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.

Greetings!
 
I'm about half-way through assembling panels into gores now, and with the 
sewing machine in the repair shop, I will hopefully be up and running again 
around the beginning of next week.

 
I have the chance to purchase an Aerostar HPII single burner locally for 
about $100 to use on my 32k. My question is would this burner be over-kill 
for a hopper? I dont want to pass it up if not. My only concern other than 
that is how to mount it to a non-Aerostar frame. Perhaps going the Boland 
bicycle-rim route and take the burner out of its current frame and adding 
springs like the t-3?

 
Best wishes to all,
Kasey
