I find my self needing to cut up cars, maybe one a month. Sawzall and circular saw with metal cutting blades work, but are expensive to use, and ugly , noisy work. whats the next step up? cutting tor

Depending on your goals... If you want to make large pieces smaller and don't particularly care what they look like, a regular cutting torch will certainly do the job. Fairly inexpensive, and the sa

Yeah, I've done the Sawzall number. Probably the right choice, but I don't have one. I tried mine, the problem being it doesn't work very consistently on double-wall panels and the like; you find yo

You can use a torch for anything. It's a poor choice for most personal hygiene tasks, though. The nifty thing about torches is that they're expandable. Even a fairly modest torch is capable of cuttin

I have cut up more than my fair share of old British cars, about 35 in the last 10 years. I preffered a Sawzall to a torch every single time. The sawzall is faster and more precise and there is almo

No one so far has mentioned the one downside to the cutting torch. Its a flame. You will need to either: 1. Get a fire extinguisher (and keep it handy :-) 2. Use a hose and hope it can put out the fi

One thing about torch set ups. I built a cart for my tanks that put the smaller tank in front of the bigger tank and the whole dolly is only about 12" wide. Normally the carts are set up with the tan

If you're space limited, go ahead and get the smaller tanks now, then upgrade later if you need to. My gas supplier was fine with this plan, your's might be as well. I still use small tanks on my to

I have a torch, but far prefer mechanical means to cut up car pieces. Granted, I don't do one per month, but I have found the sawzall to be more predictable and safer. Another tool you can add to you

OK, so what are you guys into that you have so many cars to cut up and dispose of? Here in New York we usually just strip them and leave the carcass under a bridge somewhere when we steal them. :-) Y
