So a local guy has some 200 c.f. oxygen bottles. I'm going to buy them so I
don't have to rent them. He's also got an 80 c.f. acetylene bottle he
offered me. I'm checking to see if the local place will exchange it, but
provided it will, is it worth buying the 80 c.f. over renting a 200 c.f.
tank?
It's not the cost I'm thinking about so much as having to constantly re-fill
the 80 c.f. tank. I'll have two 200 c.f. oxygen bottles, so I could go a
good long time on those. I know I'll use more oxygen than acetylene, but I
don't remember how much.
Should I keep the 200 c.f. rental, or swap it out for the 80 c.f. I buy
(provided they'll swap that one).
Thanks.
