We only looked from the driveway and road. I was looking for pink marking tape, and copperheads. NW corner looking east.Good Evening Dennis,
Congrats on your decision! Do you have any Gingseng on the WVA property ?
I can come down and dig it for you !
Just kidding, the best of luck with your decision !!![]()
Popgadget, those cuts look great, especially the thin areas. Our machine is blowing out the "thin" areas right now. My student worker and I were doing the same thing today. But we were not getting cuts as smooth as you. Found out our X and Y won't feed higher than 175 inches/minute. We are cutting 14 gage .072" thick mild steel, 45 amp, hypertherm "fine cut" tip, 80psi, .060" height, 80ish volts, .049" kerf. Table says to feed at 270 ipm. Our table has stepper type motors and are limited by the factory to 175 I guess. The manual states that the plasma flame is "hungry" for metal, and will overcut if under fed on thinner stocks. So we are getting too much dross. Our old timer who's been there a number of years, said "Told ya, should've gotten 1/4" thick material to feed it slower."Good Morning
46° and partly cloudy, supposed to warm up a bit, but won’t see 60.
Yesterday started with my daily dose of Fusion 360, then went and picked up a friend from the auto shop and took him home. About a 30 mile trip all together, the Prius had enough charge to not burn any gas.
Went out to lunch with the wife, puttered around in the shop, collected all the trash and recycling, and got it all to the street.
I tried some 20 ga (.035) steel on the plasma table to see how it would cut. Combined that with a Fusion exercise to convert a normal font to a stencil type to cut it out.

Came out pretty well considering how fine some of the cuts were.
Not sure what today’s adventures will be, good chance that we will play music tonight, but not confirmed yet. Other than that, I’ll roll with whatever pops up.
Hope he continues to heal, day by day.My son drove in. He still complains of leg pain.
