Bob,
The size and type of tips will very the required pressure a lot. Best to
start with the manufacturer.
Here's the Smith's chart for cutting tips.

One thing to remember is to open the tank valves fully. If you don't you
can/will blow the regulator. You don't want to just crack them a bit.

Subject: [TR] oxy-acetylene settings
I bought an oxy-acetylene outfit at the MIT swap fest last
Sunday. I learned to braze and cut in high school many years ago, but I
don't remember the basic regulator or flame setting. I plan on picking up
an instructional book, but could someone help me out in the mean time?
Thanks.
