Do yourself a favour, and smash the regulator for the disposable cylinders and get yourself a proper one. You'll save a fortune in money and frustration, and manage some decent welding much quicker!

There's already a proper regulator on the full size BOC bottle on the back of the stand ;)

Seems like we need a welding practice session soon. Whose neighbours are immune to flickering house lights, then? ;)

I doubt mine would notice - although parking is a bit troublesome now the new folks have moved in at number 8 with ninety millionty cars (ok, three) :(

Could do it here with no problem, I guess. If you promise to bring your big gas bottle. :P
Tech2 services currently available. See TheBoy's price list: http://theboy.omegaowners.com/
