Default Minor hook-up problem

Anyone want to come into chat and help me figure out how to hook up my new torch?
If not, anyone got any good pictures of how to set up with a BBQ tank and an oxycon and a creation station? I just want to make sure I am doing it all right.
Thanks

I must have missed you in chat (you posted that at 3 am my time) but I'll be glad to help you out. It's pretty straight forward. PM or e-mail me, or just post pics/questions here and we'll get you straight.

I have pictures on my website (in the FAQ section) showing how to hook up a torch to hoses and an oxygen concentrator.

Oh, and about the Creation Station... while you can use a clamp to clamp it to your bench, it is really better if you bolt it down. Mine is bolted to my bench, and it is sturdier that way.

I think I got it, between Kimberly's site and Dale's. That last picture on your site was part of what I was looking for, Dale, and Kimberly, I just couldn't figure how to hook up to my oxycon, but your pix helped a lot.
Thanks for the assistance, and stay tuned.....
