plasma cutter and homemade gadgets for it

was posted upon another welding forum that im on so thought id post it on here as well



You will find 60 psi works far better

mine is on a 13amp plug, never had a problem, thickest I have cut is 16mm plate but you will get slag on the rear, clean cut up to 8mm with a change of plasma cutter head

and because you can make cnc machines

Gadily for using the cut 50L with the cnc machine that was pretty impressive considering how cheap the cut 50L is.

That is the direction I want to take and eventually get a cnc set up, it will be needed for what I have in mind.

Thanks for sharing the vids man.

Yip I got a CUT 50 as well, have only used a plasma cutter in a show room.

so when I got this I have been very impressed!!

normally the compressor is cheaper than the cutter , but not in this case..

ps I find I need the 100 or 150 lettre tank as when cutter and compressor run at the same time its not so clever. (long extension out to my shed)

I run my compressor and plasma off my generator and cannot run the plasma cutter when the compressor kicks in.
I have to wait till it builds back up pressure, however it is a short wait.

also got a plasma cutter now the cut 50 model seeking an air compressor got one but needs some attention to it before i can get it up and going but i have other ways to get it running instead of electric being used



im still using grinder to a degree

Good deal Gadily, glad to see you got yourself one, sure makes short work.
Way to go man, keep pushing on.
