	I'm after a oxy acetylene kit for welding, brazing, heating stuff, and maybe cutting. i know how to use it all, so its just a case of finding it.. kits for welding / brazing are available on ebay for about £100 delivered with everything i need... except the gas. where can i get the gas? i realise they probably wont give out bottled oxygen and acetylene to any old spotty teenager for obvious reasons - so what do i need to do, and where do i need to go. sorry about the boring thread! Nick

	Try searching for a company called BOC. They supply us with all our bottled gas. The depots we use are: Aberdeen, Inverness, Leeds, Letchworth and Manchester. There's bound to be a hundred more (maybe?)

	like skinny said, BOC. you rent the bottles and pay for the gas each time you refill. you'll be on a contract. one word of advice, the oxygen fittings are left hand thread (the bottle and reg is anyway), and whatever you do, DO NOT LUBRICATE THE THREADS!!!
