A combination of acetylene and oxygen, ignited, burns at a temperature of 6,400° F.-the hottest flame that man has yet produced. The oxygen-acetylene flame, directed with an oxyacetylene torch, melts practically every kind of metal almost instantaneously. It has two kinds of uses: cutting metal, as in scrapping locomotives, battleships; welding metal, in which the oxyacetylene flame fuses the parts to be joined together...
