Might I ask if there is a reason for holding 2 psi?

That seems a tad low...


I was wondering the same thing. I usually go with around 32 Oxy, and
7 Acet. I am surprised he could get a neutral flame with those
settings, but he claims to know what a neutral flame is, and that he
is getting it. I wonder if his gauges are off...



32psi? That sounds more like "cutting tip" O2 pressure, not welding.

????



Weeeel, Jim, he likes a nice hot tip!

I run 7 and 14.
1 to 2?

or maybe it's 2 to 1?
