Just love to see your restoration of old equipment. Thank you for sharing your story. God bless you and your family

[@kevshouse]

I'm really glad that you filled in the corrosion pot holes the had compromised the reaction vessel. Not sure the body filler is as strong as steel though. Still, if it fails it is not as if the customer is ever going to know anything about it.

[@DaleDirt]

Awesome , Thank you

[@honglinh2223]

It is very interesting video, thanks for sharing

I lke your working, it's always a pleasure to see that...

Good restoration bro 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥

Sprinkle a handful of carbide rocks in the snowbank and light them all. Christmas cheer! In the 1890s my great-grandparents, from Germany, moved to Blue Island, IL and built a home. They has acetylene lighting in the house. Rare, and expensive. There was no natural gas anywhere near this area until about 1950, so the "Proletariat" among us used producer (coal) gas stored in gigantic "inflatable" tanks that were probably the biggest storage tanks ever seen! They held the output from the gasifier plants nearby. Anyway, if you had money, you could do better than this producer gas. Acetylene lights were on the order of as much light as a hundred-watt bulb! These systems were only made from 1893 to about 1898 due to the danger. The generator was in the basement, and connected through metal tubing to all the lights. Acetylene explodes spontaneously over 15 PSI, and if the controls fucked up on the generator, and if it ran away, every tube in that house became a "bangalore torpedo"!! This happened to my G-G parents and damaged the house enough to have to wreck it down and re-build! After a few years in production, they were outlawed for home use by Underwriter's Laboratories, and I think it was almost the very first action they took after their formation!

Interesting. Looks like a bomb waiting to go off.

I would never use a grinder on any kind of gas cylinder wtf this nigga

Bechna ho to bol bhai muje ye lena he gas cylinder.

Simple tank

Excellent video....thank you very much.

[@freedomleon1]

Well done sir 👍

[@selamikaranlk446]

Merhaba adamım. Bu işini güzel yaptın, tebrik ederim.

[@tommyhill199]

The structural integrity of that tank is dubious at best. But... it looks good.

[@ricardou1970]

he did a fair job!

[@mohmmadnadeem7700]

Ser pura set kitne ka ata he aur

[@tommyn.j3628]

Thats is a bomb with that Deep rust

[@johannviljoen64]

😂😂 It is a bomb without the rust too... starts of with atmospheric oxygen in the tank, then add gas to that.... Seen the use of this in many African Countries where the evidence is clear, the flame reached the tank and then came out again.

[@ManishKumar-uy9nz]

Good luck video

[@AlAn-kw1bb]

please tell me you did not try and use it, nice desk ornament, but fire and gas no no no.

[@yeagerxp]

Good job

you have talent its better to spend effort and money in restoration of valuable antic stuf .

इस टंकी को कैसे बनाया जाता है यह हमें जानकारी हो तो बताएं

[@willwade1101]

Great resto for a museum piece but I'd make it new if I were going to actually use it. Safety concerns.

[@mihalykiss5205]

Super

[@DaleDix]

Just weld outside, away from people and have the cylinder pointing away from you... just in case.

[@oldoldpilgrim7898]

My grandfather said the house we both grew up in was once lighted by a gas made in a carbide generator. He even told me about the white sludge similar to what was emptied in the video.

[@royross6281]

Calcium hydroxide I think is what's left over but calcium carbide and water must mix first

[@junkdeal]

@@royross6281 That is right. The actual discovery of calcium carbide was an accidental one when they were trying to refine aluminum in an electric furnace. The carbon in the coke and the hydrogen in the water re-combine in the reaction to make acetylene, C6H6, and CaOH. the "slaked" lime.

[@Jaredog2006]

that too cool may i make one lol

[@pcka12]

A little worried to see filler being used to cover the rust pits in a 'pressure vessel' designed to hold acetylene gas?!

[@DaleDix]

That was the bottom bit, not the cylinder.

[@pcka12]

Dale D the acetylene is under some pressure (otherwise it wouldn’t come out the nozzle)

[@richardbruce8111]

for 'A LITTLE'" Read TERRIFIED!!!

[@Bk99JzM]

Witam i pozdrawiam!!Renowacja butli acetylenowej nie bardzo wykonana,gdyz po szlifowaniu i czyszczeniu szczotka powinno sie dolny zbiornik dokladnie caly zaszpachlowac a potem dwa razy pomalowac..Filmik okey!!

[@teejaycabatingan2016]

calcium carbide as fuel is commonly use as acetylene substitute in most country in asia and lots of them died for using it. because if you put a lot of it, it will explode like a bomb. take care man. i'll always watch your video. for you to buy a tig welder

Known to make holes in shops

[@herbertbielefelder341]

Appalling paint job.

[@davesherwood5500]

Not so sure I would trust that tank at all, especially with an explosive gas such as Acetylene. All pressure vessels MUST be pressure tested when restoring with no exception. The dangers in skipping this step are just not worth the consequences.

[@patriceparodi]

STOP LA BUP! Merci

[@cdrom1070]

needs x-ray and hydrostatic test

[@cdrom1070]

oh it looks low pressure. i dunno then.

[@user-ic2xn7yn7z]

Надо было хоть ЗАШПАКЛЕВАТЬ,особенно где коррозия МЕТАЛЛ съела!!!!!!!
