I've been using one of those little Oxyturbo kits. It's been good for unseizing bolts and perfect for brazing but it won't weld or cut and the cost of oxygen is just crazy, £30 a bottle and you only get a few dozen jobs out of it.
My local gas shop has rent free acetylene. How would a proper oxy acetylene torch compare? Is that too hot for brazing? Is it too big to be able to hold like a pencil during brazing?
I know there was a post on refillingt he O2 bottles but don't know if anyone is doing it, apparently very dangerous if you don't use a proper transfill hose, and those aren't cheap.
