Just got me a plasma cutter!
Ha! Drool now, people.
Got me a Miller 375 X-treme plasma cutter today. Of course, I was going to the welding supply shop just to fill a C25 bottle. But.....how could I leave without this baby?
Bring your rigs over and I'll chop them up.

Looks a little small. What does it cut soda cans?

Re: Just got me a plasma cutter!
That one should cut 1/8" cold rolled steel fine. That's enough for his piddly Jeep projects.

Ummmm, Nope.
It's small because it's compact and portable. Rated for 3/8, cuts up to 5/8.

Re: Just got me a plasma cutter!
I want to see the pictures of the aftermath of deciding it would be cool to use the cutter after a bottle of Balvenie works its devilish magic.

Re: Just got me a plasma cutter!

I just used it for the first time. That thing cuts like butter. I'm still wondering how I ever lived without one.

Re: Just got me a plasma cutter!
Free hand always require a stead hand. I have templates for ovals and circles.
What would be a real buy is a plotter table for your plasma cutter.
Autocad + Plasma + Plotter = Complete garage

Hmmm. I haven't heard of a plotter table. I'll check into that.
In addition to regular garage cutting for the rig, I'm gonna do some stuff for the inside. Some if it I want to freehand without straight lines.
I did buy a table guide that keeps the wand at a consistent distance from the metal. It fits over the end and has small wheels on each side, plus a depth adjustment.

Re: Just got me a plasma cutter!
I wish.
I rely on free hand and templates. But the company 2 buildings down from us has a 10' x 10' plotting bed that cuts 1" thicks.
