My main oxygen regulator froze up solid during a big marble pull yesterday afternoon.

I was working on a heavy color piece and the pressure just dropped to nothing, leaving me with a weak flame. I had to stop, wrap the regulator in a warm towel for ten minutes to thaw it, and then slowly bring the pressure back up. Has anyone found a good way to stop this from happening when you're running the torch hard for a long time?

Froze solid? That's wild, I've only ever seen them get a little frosty.

Did you leave it in the car overnight? I had to thaw mine out with a hair dryer once.
