Re: oxy bottle hire
it used to cost me a fortune for monthly rental. If you use gas for a business - it would be tax-deductable and not such a problem. But for home handyman useage - its bullshit. I gave up on renting oxy bottles over 20 years ago. I never needed an ABN to hire a set of cylinders - but things may have changed. I know the fireies fucken hate oxy/acetylene bottles in home garages.
Its a great way to weld, no doubt - especially for thin-guage stuff. I miss the old blue chisel - but I sure as hell don't miss the monthly invoices and then having to pay to fill the bottles as well !!

Re: oxy bottle hire
I could possibly find out if you want as we smash through it at work.
But why don't you send StuMiller a pm I'm pretty sure he works for BOC so he could tell you for sure.

Re: oxy bottle hire
You can hire an oxy set at places like Kennards etc, if you only want it for a short time.
