Anyone going to be around the metal shop today (Sunday May 5) that could show me how to use the oxy/acetylene torch (assuming it’s in working condition)? I’m certified in the metal shop but never used the torch. I need to get an old truck door hinge real hot in order to get the stubborn rusty pin out (my propane torch isn’t doing the trick). Thanks!

I’m not sure if there’s an authorization class required to use the O/A torch but I Believe the should be. Acetylene is something that can cause very bad things to happen is not used with care. If I was going to be up there I would help you with your hinge, and hopefully somebody else can, but I don’t think it’s something somebody should just be turned loose with.
Agreed. I dont want to just wing it the first time with something like that!

I don’t have anything I need to do really but I could go ahead and rip down a few boards I need to rip down, so I could meet you there later today. I think I’m helping get some tires put on at 13:45 but if you can work around that, I can help.
I can be there around 12:15-12:30 after kid soccer game. I can also come later after your tire errand (please don’t make special trip to the space just for this though). Thanks!
