Thought I'd throw a little question to you pro's. out there:
I've got a tank of propane sitting here, full, and not being used
for anything. Would it be worth it to get an extra
bottle of o2, and another torch outfit...and set it up strictly
for cutting ? I'm wondering about the savings because I read in
a book that some workers do this 'cause propane is cheaper than acetylene. My way of thinking is o2 is the biggest cost when cutting, and I get my 75 cf. acetylene bottle exchanged for
about $20 bucks....which doesn't seem unreasonable.
