Of course! Almost everyone has a plasma cutter or two in their
shop!

The fact that your workshop may well be pretty poorly equipped,
doesnt
mean
everyone elses is the same surely?

4 mills, 2 of which are cnc, 2 lathes, bandsaws, several grinders,
welders,
vibe deburring, a ****load of cutting tools, thousands of dollars in
inspection
tools, up to date cad/cam, bunches of misc stuff, and a dog, and a cat.
If
I
need a plasma cutter, I go see my bud about a mile away. Poorly
equipped
my
ass. Whatcha got besides a smartass mouth, dead brain?

Seems strange that you dont have a plasma then, which for the money is
one
of the most useful metalworking tools available!

That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's
cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays
there.

One wonders whether or not you are aware of the fact that Orwell fought
against people like you?.............lol
