There were many who blamed the Beatles' end on the machinations of Yoko Ono, the legendary love of John Lennon's life, and on the deviousness of Allen Klein, the band's new manager who was also a favorite of Lennon's, but whom McCartney could not abide. But it wasn't that simple.
The apparatus used in gas welding consists basically of an oxygen source and a fuel gas source (usually cylinders), two pressure regulators and two flexible hoses (one of each for each cylinder), and a torch. This sort of torch can also be used for soldering and brazing.
It comes out of the same nozzle your welding wire is fed through so it literally creates a protective cloud around the arc as you're welding. A MIG welder is also a wire-feed type welder. The metal that it uses to create the weld material is held on a spool inside the welder. The type of material it uses depends on what type of metals you're joining, but it's always a metallic wire. For beginners, or for welders who need ultimate portability, some welding wire contains flux inside it, eliminating the need for a separate tank of welding gas. This works, but is inferior to a proper gas setup.
