T Bone You and the others of your old ilk have convinced me to try my hand at gas welding - and I'm going for a smaller torch too. Going out and buying a engine driven arc welder and plasma cutter, as suggested by a number of folks, would be great, and my wallet might even handle it, but my marriage might not!

Aside from how often they need to be filled, are there other advantages to larger cylinders. Would the extra $150 for the "large" vs "medium" sized tanks (to buy) be worthwhile? Thanks for your help. Are you the same T Bone that posts on the freeautoadvise Powerstroke site?
