I would like to remind all of you that the  original request was haw to 
operate a rosebud tip for maximum effect. He  asked nothing about heat 
treating, annealing or consequence of excessive  heat. That was all the 
deviating posts which completely changed the scope  of the message. All you 
eaperts, I admire your self worth as it relates to  the original message. I 
constantly see you deviating from the original  message so it is no longer 
relative to the original. Keep patting  yourselves on the back, at least 
someone has confidence in your  skills.

As to the original post to get most efficiency  from a rosebud, I run my 
Acetylene at 15 PGIG and oxygen at 20 to 25 PSIG.  This will give about one 
million BTU'S of heat. You can then regulate for  less heat by regulating 
with your torch handle knobs. The flame can be  regulated down to about 
300,000 bTU's. Any less you will want to use a #7  or #9 tip.

Gene
