Free Oxygen-Acetylene welding setup - old, but I think it works

I am moving and I have a very old oxygen/acetylene welding setup. It belonged to my dad, but he left it with me when HE moved... and now I'm moving, so I'm giving it away...

o I think it's Craftsman brand (or at least the cutting torch/heads are)
o two cylinders filled with gases
o hoses are OLD and have some cracking - use them at your own risk
o two different heads. I think one is for cutting and one is for welding?
o Striker to light it
o two regulators
o metal carrying frame for the bottles
o does NOT come with any safety gear like goggles
o Estimated to be at least 20+ years old, but I do think it works aside from the cracking in the hoses which may or may not be safe to use

Located in Rockville, Maryland. Will not ship, will not deliver. You come and pick it up. And don't even think about turning it on in my garage... if it blows up, I want it to be outside, far away!

I feel like gloating.

The setup works perfectly. Both the welding tip and the cutting tip work well, and the tanks have plenty of pressure.

Thanks again to wargasm for the welding setup. It's awesome
