Portable Oxy-Acetylene Torch kits

[russ_homans]

I've been looking at buying different kits and was wondering if it would be worth it to purchase one of the smaller kits available at Home Depots, Menards, or even Amazon. I'm just not sure how many welds you could actually get before having to get the tanks refilled. Is it practical for welding a fuselage?

What I like about them is the cost, and portability. Plus I'm new to welding and if I decide it's not something I want to put a lot of time into I'm not out a lot of money.
