Tip #24: Leave the bottles on the truck and use long oxy-acetylene hoses.

If you go through a lot of oxygen and acetylene in a portable torch rig, consider leaving larger bottles on the truck and use a much longer set of hoses to reach the jobsite.

Quick connects are available for oxy-acetylene regulators, so the most time consuming part of this setup will be twisting off the bottle caps.
