    Good Lord! I have been using oxy acetylene for 30 years, I prefer
    it's high temp and controlled flame, it allows me to fuse as no
    other mix has. Hyrdrogen just doesn't have that quick high heat. In
    sizing silver rings with stone in place it is invaluable! As far as
    caution of tanks exploding? well a plane wheel can fall outta the
    sky too! As long as your exercise caution and secure your tank
    [never drop the gas tank] you will be just fine....
