Hi, we're working on an oxy-acetylene torch table design and are looking for some feedback on it. We have some pictures of the latest design on the top right side of the project page, and the bill of materials is near the bottom:

We still need to source an oxy-acetylene machine torch for it, any recommendations?

Thanks for any feedback!

I can only suggest Oxweld by ESAB, (formerly Union Carbide, Linde). Oxweld is all I have ever owned. I don't know about Victor, Harris etc. I'm sure they are fine equipment also.

I do know there is an Oxweld tip for every occasion & every gas. They also have a line of acetylene conserving High Speed tips. I run them when cutting materials above 1/2" They pierce the metal more cleanly & cut speed for me in 1" mild steel is 5 IPM faster than a regular tip for 1".

They regurlarly pop up used on ebay for around $75.00 - $150.00 I think they run somewhere under $400.00 new.

Cool, I'll keep an eye out for an Oxweld. Thanks for the lead!
