Does anyone use a lower cost supplier of welding gases compared to having a contract with BOC? |

Thanks Dave, looks like Hobbyweld is the way to go for me. I gave up my oxy-acetylene contract a couple of years ago as for my limited use the cost was prohibitive. Still have BOC Argoshield but will change when the contract is due for renewal. Oxy-acetylene I would like to have again as I find it useful when making repair sections, etc. |

Me too....used to have an energas contract....but my welding activities can be hit 'n miss...didn't see the point in paying out every quarter...so cancelled.
Will now get hobbyweld [mig gas] when I actually need it..local stockist [well, local in my terms,even if 15 miles away!]
Has anybody tried out one of those small, compact, cheeeeep, inverters? _________________ Dellow Mk2, 1951 built, reg 1952.
