Hi, firstly I'd like to say what a great forum this is.
I've just got my first welder, which is a Sealey power welder 120. Its second hand and belonged to my late grandfather, so therefore I cannot ask him for any help.
The Welder pulls wire through and strikes an arc however the mistroy is the gas fitting and regulator that I require.
It seems that its been adapted for larger bottles probably from a pub or a like and as I'm not in the trade and dont have a BOC account I cant get the bottles or get them filled anywhere.
So what I'm asking is this ... are there any adaptors/regulators which convert the larger industral/pub fitting to a Small Hobby welder fitting. Iv'e attached some photos to assist anyone who tries to help me get going.
This is the gas line removed from the welder the end with the fitting on connected to the regulator and gas approx 15mm, the other end was connected to a small fitting within the welder approx 5mm.
