    I have been thru many videos today covering the setup of the regulators and also the basics or techniques of using the cutting torch and i can say without a doubt that your videos, sir, are far superior to anything else I have seen today! Many thanks and I will now check out your channel and leave "Likes" in appreciation!!

    This was an excellent video. I see now how well oxy-fuel can complement my powerplasma cutting. I never thought I would ever need oxy-fuel.

    Great tutorial, much better than most of the others which some of them supposedly come from welding schools! Thanks! A suggestion for some future episodes, how about discussing some of the problems that beginners May face learning to cut steel, the causes of those problems and how to correct them. As an example, your flame popping out after lighting.

I don't have such a dressing tool - in this respect, it's good I don't use the bench grinder often due to my other very varied and diverse activities. Again thanks.

    Nice vid nonetheless, and you should mention that the technical name for the extra stoppers are 'flashback arrestors' they also stop flame from coming in in case of flashback. Some models, mine idk if it does, have them built in, I'll have to check, but that's a point you should also make.

    At the 3:00 minute mark you make the statement, that the torch handle is a mixing chamber, and this is a misstatement, the fuel gas and oxygen do not mix until they reach the cutting or welding apparatus. Set your pressures by opening by opening your valves on the torch and adjust the pressure adjustments on the regulators, then close your torch valves. Please put on your welding gloves prior to lighting your torch and please mention that shade 5 lens are recommended by the American Welding Society as proper eye protection while oxy-fuel cutting or welding. I have been welding and cutting metal since 1983 for a living and I teach cutting processes and SMAW and GTAW and GMAW on the community college level. I hold several AWS certification for welding and teaching the craft of welding. Overall not bad a bad video and it does contain some good information.

    if the acetylene pressure is over 15, the safety valves will melt and blow within time. never lay the acetylene bottle down, if its laid down, wait more than 4 hours because theres acetone mixed with the gas and rises above acetylene. not good.

    Great, vid, but one question. For shutting it down you said to first shut off the oxygen needle valve, then shut off the gas needle valve but leave the oxygen needle valve open for now (6:35). You can't shut it and leave it open at the same time. What is the proper procedure?

    bubblehead7680 Ge meant to close the O valve on the cutting torch but leave the one on the "handle" open for now. You adjust the O leves by opening the one on the torch.

    There is one basic point you haven't mentioned; you'll learn this when you get older. Never lend your acetylene and oxygen tanks to your adult children! These will become permanent fixtures in their own shops and you'll be forced to buy replacements. Plus, they'll laugh like hell at you whenever you give them shit about it.
