Cutting Torch ?

admin

A "friend" wants me to cut something for him that is made out of Stainless steel. I've never had the need to cut any stainless before with my torch, anything special about it ?
Reply:Yea, you ain't gonna cut it with an O/A torch!  If you're really good at cutting with propane, you can hack your way thru stainless with a torch.Plasma job Jack!Appreciation Gains You Recognition-
Reply:I thought maybe I'd read that once upon a time .... at least now I won't have to make up a story about why I don't want to do it
Reply:Well Jack, there is another way, and you'd get to wear that helmet you're so fond of, and leathers too, ARCAIR!Appreciation Gains You Recognition-
Reply:If that's the case I definitely don't want to do it ... lol
Reply:Jack,Just bite the bullet and get a plasma cutter. I drooled for a number of years....then I turned the word "want" into "need". It worked!"Some days you're the dog, some days you're the fire hydrant"
Reply:just put a peice of  mild steel on top and make sure there are no gaps so heat can transfer and you can cut stainless with o/a
