hey guys. I'm thinking about getting a set of torches in the near future and was wondering what to expect to pay for a complete setup. I know that I can probably pick up a used set off of Craig's list, but everything that I've found in my area so far has been pretty old, and I'd really like to have something new. I saw this set at Tractor Supply the other day but the price seemed kinda high for such small tanks. http://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/pr...plete-torch-outfit-with-cylinder?cm_vc=IOPDP2 Also, is it best just to rent the tanks or should I buy my own tanks, and is there any particular mfg that you guys prefer? Thanks for any info.
i can't really advise on the price since it's been a long time since i've bought my torch setup , but i think those tanks are big enough for a home hobbyist . my torch is Victor also buy or rent tanks depends...who will be filling them? Tractor Supply? i own my tanks , but the place a got them from years ago are kinda assholes and give poor service when they exchange them. the is another place in town that wish i was with....but they will not exchange/fill my tanks since they did not come from them. so i'm kind stuck unless i want to buy/lease new tanks
