I have the larger Victor torch, 315, IIRC. I want the smaller one. Is that the #100? I want the whole shebang, body, cutting torch attachment, and a half dozen tips or so for fine gas work.
Answer here, and e mail me if you have one of these sets for sale. Don't need the gauges or hoses, just torch and attachments.

Yes. The #100 is the smaller hobby torch. I love the 315, but it is not a good torch for students.

Do I need to get a 100, or just get a really tiny tip for my 315? I do like the lighter 100 model, and this is for thin cutting and for very light gas welding.

I would go for a smaller torch body for thin gas welding. The 315 can go down to a #0 tip, but the handle is still rather large.
You might be able to find an "aircraft" torch. They are smaller than a Victor 100, but larger than a Smith "Little Torch". I have an older Victor model J-28, and it is lovely for jewelry work.
I have used a Victor 100C for a lot of welding on thin aircraft tubing and it does a good job. I also have a Smith AW1A which is a little smaller than the 100C and the AW1A is the torch I prefer for thin welds. I have no experience with the Victor 100C for cutting.
