Hi all good day to you.

I have recently acquired a Little Torch from my late uncles tools, but no instruction booklet/information as to where I can obtain the regulator and gas bottles.
I would be most obliged if any member would point me in the direction of a supplier for the required component parts

Best regards Jon

where I can obtain the regulator and gas bottles.

I have a 5 litre oxygen cylinder from here:

https://www.gas-uk.co.uk/rent-free-gas-cylinders/oxidising-gases

There is no rental on the cylinder but there is a deposit £40 if I remember correctly. If you exchange the cylinder within a year you get the £40 but it deminishes to £0 over 3 years(I think). I'm unlikely to get this back as I don't use much. Some on the list use an oxygen concentrator, I've no experience of these.

I also purchased a regulator from gas-uk. I have a calor gas propane cylinder.

Don't forget the flashback arrestors and take a look at the health and safety of oxygen at the BOC website especially the bits about petrochemical grease and PTFE tape.
