Well i tried useing it today. and you guys are right. It is a pain to use, the oxy pellets burn up so fast. I think i'll just get a smaller size oxy/acetylene one with out pellets. Thanks

They're too small, unless you're downsizing a wedding ring, and insanely expensive to operate. There is minimal control of the flame, and invariably you run out of oxygen before you get anything hot, other than your temper.
The people who produce them sure make a lot of $$$$$$$ though.

Those torches use different sized pellets coordinated with the various tip sizes. There should be a manufacturers guide that details its use and the safety factors involved. Since the torch produces O2 in the torch handle from the O2 rich pellets, there is a possible safety hazard if instructions are not followed. It was probably made by a company known as "Clean Weld".

I have a "new in the box" one of these, never used with 3 cans of the smaller size oxygen pellets. It was manufactured in 1981. It includes the instructions as well. I'll sell it for $15 plus shipping.
