setting up new torch

[tortiselover]

OK - got the new torch (Minor) - and an Oxy Con - hoses etc...
what all do I need EXACTLY to fire this up? I am leaving for out of town tomorrow for 2 months and taking all my new toys with me and I want to have everything ready
As to the Propane guage - do I need one with 1-2 or no glass guages.....
THANKS!

You need a set of hoses and some hose clamps. That's all you need.

You probably want a regulator with at least one gauge. Having two doesn't really help much as they always read that they have pressure in them until they are empty. The best way to see how much propane you have left is to take an empty tank and weigh it, and occasionally put your tank on a scale and see what it weighs. You'll get a rough idea of how much you have left that way.
