Kees, yes, it was a cutting torch. I use propane instead
of acetylene, and had it adjusted to a "lazy" flame,
so as not too hot. Otherwise, all I have use is a
too small brazing tip.
Perhaps I should see if the tank still mounts on the
power head before I to any finishing work on the
tank.
The top of the tank was pretty decent as far as dents.
The vise kept the flat top from "bulging out" from the
air pressure. Not sure the magic number as far as
air pressure. All I know is that too much might be bad. 😮
I would think air pressure would be a variable depending
on the design and shape of the tank.
Thanks!
Prepare to be boarded!
