Cutting the gas canister

A DIY tip which featured on a BBC programme has been criticised for being dangerous and irresponsible. The renovators on The House That £100k Built, cut through a gas canister to make a light fitting. The experts praised the end result, but the makers of the canister say the move could have proved fatal.
