Another plasma component...

I'm doing it for fun now that I've stopped working

That is also my motive...

Cheers, Phill.

Yes it is, plus it has the added benefit of keeping me out of my wife's hair which she greatly appreciates.

Cheers, Phill

No metal, please! I've already seen one such incident, did not end well !
A costumer of mine has a big workshop and some stainless gathering dust so he thought it would look much nicer than the black plastic. It did look nicer, but it arced somehow inside. Still has it and uses it, after getting some high voltage isolating tape and adding several layers of insulation with it.

lol, yeah no steel. I don’t know your customer but I would halfway assume that would be common knowledge.

So another question. Does or can LinuxCNC/plasmaC apply cutter comp. I looked through Sheetcam and did not see any options to turn it on. I would like to beable to adjust offset on the fly so I can fine tune the size of the parts.

Sheetcam has it as "kerf" under "tool" i think, it's been to long since i tested it.
Linuxcnc can apply it, granted the tool table is set up, and regardless of the one set in sheetcam. Also JT is doing some nesting magic and if i remember it correctly it also can do that.
