I can't thank you enough for this video. The documentation that came with my Little Torch was so unhelpful. I've had this torch set for a while, but having no experience with torches and no proper instructions, I've been terrified to use it. I just walked through the entire process following your video and it worked perfectly! And, I now understand the theories behind all the dials and valves. Thank you, thank you!!! PS - for whatever it's worth, I thought it was kinda funny about your older gauges.

I hate to be negative, but I have also been in the trade for 33+ years and now teach it. I know you are approaching this from a "real life" perspective, but I can't see where it is advantageous to show defective equipment in need of repair and teach improper safety set-up. I think teaching the "industry accepted" methods is safer than just passing on our own experience. I do commend you for wanting to pass along your experience to people just starting out.

Hello and thank you for your video. I want to add my 2 cents, THANK YOU for showing exactly how you do it, your way, with your equipment. Not all of us can afford NEW equipment (or all new equipment) and some may do as I did and get things second hand, then invest in arrestors and study all the OSHA safety guidelines like O2 tank open all the way and 1/4 turn on Acetylene tank. You do not claim to be 'the source' for all knowledge on OxyAcet welding, and show people the defects of your equipment. This is a forum where anyone can post their videos and we the viewers need to exercise discretion whether to follow the advice of the film maker. But even after taking a class, and getting textbooks from the library i still needed the extra nudge which your (& others) videos helped a lot!

in the case of Oxygen tanks, the valve actually needs to be opened all the way because of the higher amount of pressure present in the tank and the way the back-seating valve works. If it is not opened all the way apparently there is a risk of there being a leak in the threading of the valve itself.

Acetelene becomes VERY UNSTABLE at pressures higher than 15 psi!!...Open the Acetelene valve 1/4 to 1/2 turn...NO MORE...in case there's a problem, you can shut it off quickly. Open the oxygen valve slowly at first, then open it FULLY. ALWAYS open the oxygen valve FULLY bc if you don't, it could damage it. It has a special kind of valve on it that could deteriorate if you don't...👍😁

The liquid dryer had more blowing resistance than the txv seemed to. My vacuum pump wasn't working so this job is tbc when my new pump comes in.

grayfurnaceman Oh, OK, So I can go as high as *40* Let me ask you this, my low pressure acetylene gauge is acting goofy, (I just got this set *used*, its one of the little baby sets) 1st the needle was under the peg, so I took the cover off and moved the needle. With the acetylene valve at the torch end closed, the gauge goes up to about 5 PSI But when you open the acetylene valve at the torch end, the gauge goes down to Zero. Turning the regulator in, with the valve open (at the torch end) has no effect on the reading. I did light the torch, and adjusted my flame, and it did seem to work OK, But of course I don't know what my true pressure is. Do you think is is (hopefully) just the gauge, or does it sound like the regulator is messed up?

I don't want to trash on your vid and say it's all wrong, but I've learned this way: Back out t-screws on both oxygen and acetylene until they're loose (flick it and it'll move) Make sure the valves on the torch are closed before pressurizing. Pressurize either first, but for acetylene, open the valve one full turn. Then tighten the t-screw until the acetylene is at 13 psi. For the oxygen, open the valve all the way. Pressurize it to 20 psi. Done! Now just open the acetylene valve on the torch a little bit, ignite it, adjust the flame, then add in oxygen. Easy.

This equipment is dangerously old, oxy/ace lines should be replaced, every 6 years is standard but usually not needed, but 20 years is getting pretty suspect and a recent hand held unit with check valves is far safer than an older one may be. Not many ace explosions noted in news but they do happen on occasion. Be safe. (There was one last month, blew up windows in two houses after leaking tank on truck caught/exploded).

Why not acetyline and oxygen readily mixed inside the cylinder?

Well, if you wanted a bomb that would explode when you light the torch, I guess that would work well. Good grief think about it. GFM

Wow ...try putting acetylene and oxygen in a garbage bag then adding a wick. Light the wick and see what happens. You will have your answer. Lmao good luck. We use to make these bombs all the time.

Please do not take my comments as "competing with you". I realize that it is difficult to say something in text and not have it taken the wrong way. Perhaps I should have said nothing. I don't think I would have the patience or knowledge to produce training videos such as yours, so for that I am commending you. Cheers!

How can anyone learn from you when your equipment is so run down (in need of repair).

+Tbvck I seldom see equipment that is up to standards unless it is new or in a classroom. Note I have referred to another video that covers the upgrading and repair of this torch set. GFM

lol you don't own this shit or at least not a portable set if you did you'd know thats why hes making the vid.. so people see how shit is in the real world and how to use it when you get on a job with a guy who has old equip and he expects you not to whine and bitch like a princess with daddy's new equip you got use to.

People say you're settings are wrong. For your specific setup they seem fine. But in an industry setup these settings will not work.

If the adjustment does not change the pressure, the regulator has failed. Could be dangerous as high pressure in the line could cause spontaneous combustion and an explosion. GFM
