Instead of cutting off end of hose go by local welding supply and get a "B" fitting....
IT has 1/4 inch "pipe thread" (plumbing industry standard) on one end and 9/16 X 18 thread on other end to fit welding hose...You will probably have to use a reducer or adapter bushing to get from shut off valve size (3/4 or 1/2 NPT) to the pipe thread size of "B" fitting. But that should be a common hardware store plumbing part...
On end where hoses connect "B" fittings for fuel gas have a left-hand thread, this is signified by groove cut in flats (hex portion) where wrench goes.... Oxy "B" fittings have no grooves and are right hand thread...
