Both are good choices but I would have to go with my Oxy-Acetelene torch
that I bought 30 years ago! Every time I need to use it, it's a case where
nothing else will even come close to being a substiture. There is
something about cherry red metal that makes all things come loose no matter
how rusted they are. I'd also have to give my air impact wrench an
honorable mention. Between that and the tortch I can't begin to imagine
how many broken off bolts that I would have had to drill out and retap.
