Having sold this stuff for over 30 years now I can tell you that propane is a good choice for all around home shop use. It will take a little longer as the flame temp of oxy/propane is about 1000* cooler that of oxy/acetylene but the safety and cost advantages are well worth it. It does take a different cutting tip to get the best performance and you should buy a new set of hoses as most all outfits come with grade R fuel hose which will deteriorate if used for propane. You need to ask for grade T hose which is good for all gases.
