Looking over the selection from Rockler - $130+/- :eek: Ouch

Any other sources I should check out? Any recommendations on size, heat source, etc?
 
I've got one you heat with propane. I'll say it takes a bit of practice to get it to work right, and even then, next time I try to use it, I'd probably put it in a drill press instead of free handing it.
 
I've got one like the rockler brand, was a xmas present from my FIL. It's works well, but have only used it a half dozen times over the 5-6 years. Thought about having a new head done that maybe has a web address on it.
 
I have the electric Rockler arc with date (year). It was a little pricey, but I caught it on sale several years ago.

Edit: Just checked email and noticed Rockler has 20% off one regular-priced item - code V2393.
