IF you are going to use #1 cylinder with fuel/Oxygen torch be it a mini-cc or a minor or whatever....

You can get a device called a "steak saver" which adapts a #1 cylinder (1 inch disposable threads) to a standard CGA 510 connection type typical the same as large propane tank valve so you can use a standard propane/acetylene adjustable regulator or a any of the pancake or adjustable style propane regulators .....




The regulator below is small fixed pressure (non adjustable) regulator with CGA 510 tank valve connector that is set at 1/3 psi and is approximate the same pressure that people using Natural Gas (NG) as delivered by utility company in their studio... Outlet side of regulator has a industry standard "B" fitting that takes standard welding hose so you do not have to do any cutting or fitting or adapting of odd parts to "make things work"...
