Default Added A Blue Tip Wrench To The Garage

I have the 02 bottle. I got the 100lb propane bottle , gauges, hose and torches at a farm auction . I got tired of needing to go to my shop thats 3mi down the road if I needed to cut something.
propane doesnt burn as hot as acetylene. but it lasts longer and is under half the price of acetylene.

when I worked as a millright thats all we used. if someone wanted to put a small torch together , you can use the bottle from you cooking grill . you cant use a bottle from a forklift. forklifts run on the liquid , so there is a tube in the bottle to suck the liquid out. a cooking grill bottle or one like I have just lets the gas out. you also need propane tips for your torch.

Nice score

I hope those rubber straps are only temporary until you get some chain in place to keep the cylinders upright.

As A kid I remember a junk yard I hung out/worked, had a 49-51 ford with two holes cut in the trunk with the Ace/Oxy hanging out darn neat horizontally.
I always though of that a a "lady in waiting" as in a accident waiting to happen.
The old ford had no top and was always piled with various "junk" popping/banging/and smoking like a smoke stack, on it's ways along the isles
of assorted parts vehicles.
Those were the days, I used to break down tires/tubes/Wheels into 3 piles.
earning $.10 for each wheel and it was all done with a sledge hammer and tire spoons,- no power changer like we have today.
but I was young and strong and that made me stronger!
I sure didn't need a "gym" workout Ha,LOL!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
