Some weldors only use Oxy/Acet to weld with. I've used it on steel, aluminum, brasses and bronze as well as silver soldering and brazing. If I had only one process available to use Oxy/Acet would be my choice as you can cut, braze, heat and weld with it. It is the process of choice for artists and craftspeople.

How do you weld a bevel broken gear which type of weilding rods are used to weld gears?

When welding something like gears, you need a rod that gives good penetration, and also has a fairly high density. I would probably use 6011 rods. These are the best for any "out of position" weld. Just be sure it's a close weld. Otherwise you'll get a lot of spatter (which you would then need to grind off).
