I decided to go with dual stage regulators since they were cheap on ebay.  I'm pretty sure I didn't need a 2 stage for acetylene, but considering these last nearly forever, it's better and cheaper to get it than to figure out I need it later on and buy another.  Most of the work I plan on doing will be very small and the need for precision goes up.  With A 2 stage O2 regulator I know for sure even with smaller bottles that the pressure won't change while I'm working and one less problem to deal with.  Since there are used they do not have the correct fittings to go to welding hose.  So I think I need a hose coupling from here.  Also found where to get replacement lenses for gauges Webstaurant Amazon.
