Excerpt from A Text Book on Welding and Cutting Metals The oxy-acetylene welding and cutting torch has become so popular in the last few years, that almost every issue of the trade papers in any branch of work contains interesting accounts of new successes in the use of this powerful tool. The first application of the process, to commercial use, dates back to 1903, and its rapid growth in popularity is due to the ease and economy with which its intense heat 15 applied to any of the metal trades, to join two pieces by welding, or separate them by cutting without the stroke of a hammer. A notable example of the saving that may be effected by using this process is in the event of repairing a broken loco motive cylinder shown in Fig. 1. This cylinder had a piece broken out of the wall including a portion of the flange. Previous attempts to weld this piece in place by other methods had proven disastrous, and resulted in making the fracture larger. The oxy-acetylene process was then 'brought into use, and in less than a day's time a new piece was welded in as shown in Fig., 2. The cylinder was rebored, drilled, and the job finished without removing it from the locomotive. A great sawing in this case is credited to the fact that the loco motive was put back into service in a comparatively short time, and the repairs were made without dismantling. The durability of this work 1s illustrated in fact that this cylinder was welded July loth, 1910, and is still in successful operation.

Excerpt from Oxy-Acetylene Welding: A Comprehensive Treatise on the Practice of Welding Cast Iron, Malleable Iron, Steel, Copper, Brass, Bronze, and Aluminum by the Oxy-Acetylene Method In oxy-acetylene welding the weld may be formed directly between the two adjoining surfaces, but, more commonly, it is formed by fusing in additional material between the surfaces Of the joint. This material is in the form Of a rod or w1re, and may or may not be of the same composition as the material being welded.
