Hey Martin,

Looks very good!! Your spot welds look better than a full bead I try
to make!!

I couldn't get the video to show the machine in action. Don't know
why, and didn't really try very hard, but..............

Take care.

I have a 4' by 4' table - and a plasma cutter.

The cutout you did was very nice indeed.

You might want to protect the lead screw with a rubber boot (balloon - long thin
ones the clowns make animals from. That will keep the balls and dust of metal
from attaching and locking up the threads.

Well done in concept.

I'm planning on making a CNC plama cutter my self. You said "cheap"
How cheap was it. I've been telling people I could do it for $2500.
That includes about $1200 for a new plasma cutter. I run an ESAB SXE
where I work and am finding all sorts of things I could make and sell
if only I didn't have to do what the boss wants me to do.
I'm a machinist and also have an associates degree in electronics so
I'm confident I can pull it off too. I'm at library now and only have
time to download your pages to view at home later

The unit the OP posted looks to be built like a tank, since plasma
imparts no cutting force on the machine, you don't need to build yours
quite so beefy. Just beefy enough that you don't have excess vibration
during high speed moves. Lots of info and resources on cnczone.
