Optimus,
I don't have any bottles as yet, so I wouldn't be able to get one filled.
I know of a couple of smaller companies, 1300Dolly, but they all come out at around £160 for acetylene and £60 for oxygen. I don't mind paying a fair price for a piece of equipment like the torch, gauges, etc., but that much for just hire/deposit of a couple of bottles...no.
Turns out, my neighbour has a big set of OA, which he has on an account with, presumably BOC, so I will have to sweet talk him when I need to do some welding. He's a good old boy.
