Maybe. I have a small torch that can stand (with flame from below or from the side) and I can hold it easily to direct the flame like you said. For changing pads I still use an alcohol lamp that I don't hold, because to me it is more comfortable. The only times I might use the torch for pads is when I need a very small flame (for example sax key with a pearl on it) or to heat glue in the pad cup faster from above (flame directly on the glue).

By the way Perry, I still remember my first repad. It was a plastic Eb clarinet and I used my home stove as flame!

Ben, if those are the prices and schools can afford it then I guess it is good in a way that is very important :)
