[TheForge] oxy-propylene

[Jerry Frost]

I've been using oxy propane for close to 20 years and 
don't like the way it welds but have never said it's 
impossible. The only reason I'm adding to Larry's reply 
is most of the previous oxy propane torch discussions 
on this forum have had my participation.

I'm a BIG proponent of oxy propane as long as it's a 
properly designed torch.

It cuts, heats, brazes, solders, etc. way faster and 
better than oxy acet. I don't like the way my torch 
welds but it will.

If you check out All-States tell Lyle Frosty says hi. 
It probably won't do you any good but you never know.

it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
