    First cuts with the new machine

    So I finally have my system up and running. Took a little tweaking but very shortly after a few test cuts I was able to cut this. The down draft system I made works like a champ zero smoke I just have to make sure to cover the edges of the table where the material doesn't so it doesn't plume outside the edges but all in all it does the job nicely.

    Let me know how the cut looks compared to what it is suppose to look like. The part is 10" overall big, I don't know if there is a way to get it to cut the (cutouts) a little cleaner. But that's the only thing I see that could use a little work. Or is that the best I'll expect to see with the plasma?

    Specs are 2x4 custom table, power max 45xp,

    12ga stainless
    . 08 pierce, . 02 cut height, 110 ips,.5 second delay time.

    Using a floating head. Thc is off now as when I was messing with it I kept having the damn head crash into the table.

    This is the part directly off the table.
