Do you own one of these?

Not yet, but it is on my must have list. I have the motorized cutting torch, that will follow a track, or a straight edge.

I can see why you must have one I am at the cutting charistics, cutting through rod that thick and the multiple plate even with an air gap is enough to make any professional smile(by the way I am not a pro welder). I am just glad to have the o/a for what I do but man that is head and shoulders above o/a.

I wonder if all torch makes can be used with this gas set up?

I sent Petrogen an Email asking about this, and here is what they said.




In order to safely deliver and mix the gasoline, everything is different: hose, torch, tank. tips. Tip numbers correspond to thickness cut. See cutting chart on Standard Package page in our Web site.

I just scratched O/A off my wish list and replaced it with petrogen.

I'm now in search of some project where I have to cut some insanely thick metal with an airgap between two layers.

Did any get any pricing yet?

I was looking at propane / oxygen but haven't made that move yet.

this looks like another alternative.

A quick web search indicated that they are pretty guarded about their prices. Everyone says to "call for pricing"

The used ones I see selling locally are advertised for a little over $1,000. I'd imagine new is a bit more than that.

Thanks

I think I'll look in to the propane a little harder now.
