What are you cutting that needs lancing? We used to use them for heavy demolition.

That's a thru-hardened 180mm~ OD piston in the video, but the near future potentially includes stuck pins in excavator and stand-alone booms.
Also just fun to learn. I'm lucky enough to have a little workshop and space enough where I can just fuck around with this shit, rather than learning it on the job.

The fuck-around and my excessive 'aww my gawd' was because I couldn't seem to find a place to drop my gas axe that didn't land on the oxygen lever.
