Does anyone have a favorite site welding site for newbies?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You could use BOTH. For light work, like sheet metal, acetylene is better.
For stuff that's thicker, acetylene becomes progressively slower and more
expensive to run. If you compare initial investment, a used buzz box is way
cheaper than torch, regulators, assortment of tips and cylinders. WAY
CHEAPER.
