Quick question about oxy-acetylene cutting.

When I cut with my torch, the molten metal breconnectsb behind my cut.
This means that I need to go back and recut the metal to separate it.

I have my acetylene set at around 7psi and my O2 at about 20 psi.

I light the acetylene and reduce the flame until itbs just starting to
quiet down then add the O2 until the blue flames are just tips.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
