I'd like to add a question to that if I may. If I were to hookup a wire to my plasma torch shielding cup, and one to my material grounding wire, so when the machine's torch moves down to find the...

Good point. What do you think about the $148.00 for 5.5 hours of work?

The guy I’m doing it for owns his own woodshop, and he can’t do it himself with a router table. It should take about 5.5 hours (cutting time) for everything. The wood he is supplying will be slightly...

I am having some trouble getting a price together for someone who asked me to do some simple wood CNC work for him. Could someone tell me if I’m in the ballpark with this price. Here is what he asked...

When I got my 52”x96” cnc plasma table running, I had a 25 year old Hypertherm Max20 I was cutting with. After 2 or so months, the transformer went in it and I ended up buying the PowerPlasma 50....

One sheet has all my tooling info on it. Feed rates and amps for different types & materials cut,...

I need some assistance determining if this stepper motor package will work, or if it is overkill.

My table dimensions are 96” x 52” with the primary function of plasma cutting. I’m not interested...

I’m building a 5’x8’ CNC plasma cutting table and I’ve come to a stopping point. I’m not sure what size rack, gear, or stepper motor to purchase. The gantry itself will end up weighing close to...

Thanks for the replies. Any brand or model number your in favor of?

Ok, so it’s time to buy a plasma cutter… only problem is, I have no idea what kind to buy. That’s where you guys come in. This will be for my newly made/almost finished CNC plasma cutter. Mostly it...

Thanks... I'll put CAT-5 on my do not use list for the new plasma table.(nuts)

Anyone know if it is possible to use CAT-5 Wire?

Any suggestions on the rack and gear size? (for both Nylon and Steel) It’s been about 7 years since I’ve worked with gears. Also I’m having trouble deciding what size steppers to purchase, so any...

I'm in the process of designing a 5'x7' plasme burn table. Im trying to keep the cost down. Anybody ever use Nylon 101 for the gear rack? It will be shielded, so I'm not so worried about the dust...
