[quote user="BMMECNYC"] <a href="https://arlweb.msha.gov/alerts/hazardsofacetylene.htm">https://arlweb.msha.gov/alerts/hazardsofacetylene.htm</a> "PROTECT ALL CYLINDERS FROM FALLING OBJECTS. AVOID ROUGH HANDLING, DROPPING, OR KNOCKING OF CYLINDERS TO PREVENT DAMAGING THE CYLINDER, FUSIBLE PLUGS, RELIEF DEVICES, CYLINDER VALVES OR GAUGES. STORING ACETYLENE CYLINDERS ON THEIR SIDE MAKES THE ACETYLENE LESS STABLE AND LESS SAFE, AND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF SOLVENT LOSS AND RESULTANT DECOMPOSITION. ACETYLENE CYLINDERS SHOULD BE STORED AND USED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION AND FIRMLY SECURED TO PREVENT FALLING OR BEING KNOCKED OVER." <div style="clear:both;"> </div> [/quote] Sorry about the all caps.  I didnt feel like re-typing.  MSHA felt it was important enough to all caps.
