Habitat has a HUGE steam heat boiler that needs to be cut into smaller

anything different about using a plasma cutter on cast iron? I wouldn't
think so, but I've never done it. I guess that you would get a lot of
soot in the cloud of vaporized iron.

All you need is power, the cutter and a decent air compressor to keep up
with the cutting. That and some asbestos blankets to cover stuff to
keep the chance of fire down.

Surprisingly..there is very little "smoke" generated, unless the cut is
through oil/garbage.


Anyone want a plasma cutter good for 1/8" only?

and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
