The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Need to replace oxy-acetylene torch set

My Airco oxy-acetylene torch hose and gages were purchased in 1968.
The acetylene gage has been rebuilt once and needs it again.
The torch is not cutting as good as it used to. I purchased new orings
for the valves but it didn't improve a whole lot.
Its had flashback valves since new.
Think maybe I need to get a new setup.

Any recommendations as to a good brand ???
