Re: Acetylene safety pics

When I was in high school shop, I was messing around with the torches and turned the "air" on to blow some flux that you braze with back into the can. Who ever used it before had left some little pieces all over the top. The can had a little hole about 1/2 an inch in it to stick the rod down into. Well, I obviously filled the can with acetylene and when the next kid came along to use the torch to braze with, he heated the rod and plunged it into the hole. It blew flux all over the shop and the kid had to change his shorts. The teacher laughed his butt off when he found out what happened.
