3315 C and about 6000 F for oxyacetylene. Tungsten is tough. :beer:
You better have a hot flame! This stuff melts at 3400 C and about 6200 F, as opposed to your standard carbon steel around 1500 C and 2700 F. Almost x2.5 more temperature required. I'm thinking it would require an arc type of smelting process. I don't remember how hot oxyacetylene gets but I don't think it's that high.
