Me and my Dad have 2 BOC cylinders on one rental, somebody gave us the

Actually pubs use straight CO2 which isn’t the best for welding, you will get a
much better weld with a proper welding gas which is a CO2/Argon Mix.

Try starting with metal about 2mm thick as thin metal is more difficult.
Less than 2mm use 0.6 mm welding wire with the correct tip.
Play on scrap first, it vreally is worth practising.p
Good luck

You can run the bigger welders from a 13 amp plug, you might blow an
occasional fuse if welding on the maximum current but i can't remember
