Oxy-Fuel Cutting
Cutting carbon steel plate, pipe, and structural shapes with an acetylene/oxygen torch. Used for beveling weld prep, scrapping heavy steel, and demolition work where electrical power isn't available. Good torch operators know tip sizes, flame settings, and drag angles to get clean kerfs without gouging the parent metal.
