Hi. Thanks for posting this video. Would it make sense to use the Smith Little Torch with those small disposable propane tanks with an oxygen concentrator?

@mfmetalarts5782 Жыл бұрын

Yes, you can use an oxygen concentrator, that is a very common setup

After watching this video, I would like to say much appreciated! Thanks for the detail. Question: What type of setup do you suggest for a jewelers torch and tanks. Thank you kindly!

Hi Steve. My preferred torch is a simple EZ Torch which is propane /air. This is not a precision torch but is perfect for the filigree work I do. If you are looking to set up a fuel/oxy torch, I would suggest something like a Little torch, with 1 pound disposable propane bottles and an oxygen concentrator.

Did he say 30 minutes and then 13 as i recall useing them 13 minutes sounds more like it 30 minutes seems less bad but years ago when i tried it the propane was like $2.50 but like $10 or so and it takes so many to empty the $2.50 of propane

I recently bought the same torch I just need to find the right regulators before I can use it. What brand regulators do you use?

@mfmetalarts5782 2 жыл бұрын

I use Smith regulators

Can you use worthington oxygen and propane disposable tanks with the smith little torch

@mfmetalarts5782 2 жыл бұрын

To the best of my knowledge, yes, all of the disposable tanks have threading systems that will work with their respective regulators ie propane needs a propane regulator made for disposable tanks and same goes for oxygen (different regulator).

You're vastly better off buying small industrial oxygen cylinders than spending far more per tiny low-pressure fill for disposables. Worthington and other standard disposable LP cylinders fit because the LP thread is a Compressed Gas Association standard.

How did you use that much ox I never used anywhere near that . Even using it for years as a professional jeweler

Hi Warren. The video clearly shows how I did the tests. How I set up the torch etc. The results are consistent and accurate. Is there something you feel that I did incorrectly in the design of the experiment? Do you have any specific data on the number of disposable oxygen bottles you used per disposable propane bottle ? I would be very interested in understanding your experience with disposable oxygen bottles

Ya thos oxygen bottles should be criminal to sell they dont have much in them

@DennisHicks78749 2 жыл бұрын

Compellingly shows to go one that a M or R tank will probably save mucho dinero comipared to the 1lb’ers. Though I am guessing, having done no comparative calculations.

@mfmetalarts5782 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, you are correct. The other option would be to go with an oxygen concentrator

@Comm0ut Жыл бұрын

It's no contest re:oxygen. A Homefill concentrator can also refill small industrial cylinders if you assemble an adapter using high pressure fittings (Western dominate that market) and the Homefill male QD, or you can and I do use an adapter with medical cylinders (in my case for running a cutting torch in the field for very short tasks) and run a standard oxygen regulator. Some time spend reading about CGA fittings and welding oxygen in general is well spent.

How come on test 1 you used a #7 tip but test 2 & 3 it looks like you're using a Rosebud tip. Definitely not the same tip being used. Just curious.

@mfmetalarts5782 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Stacy, Thanks for your interest. The reason I switched to the rosebud tip was to make the testing go a bit quicker as the rosebud tip uses a lot more fuel than the #7.
