Bought material, the journey continues.

I added my ngc file with manually added settings.
Did I get this right? if it reduces speed to 60% but is already slow for thick material is it not to slow then?

if I have a 90 degree lead in and lead out..can I still use overcut?

G3 I-16.4 I figured out Now.
knowing gcode better the two holes would be possible with plasmac extra tab!! I guess.


Lucky me to get a 35mm hole as needed !!!!!!!.
seems compensation is quite a bit.

I will try with reduced speed that is fine!

the learning curve stays high.
I had to increase cutting height otherwise the torch runs into cutting dross .

If one circle is done but the other failed to start with the second only do I have to edit the Gcode file to start again only with the second one or is there a possibility to skip , or start at a gcode line?
haven't tested if torch enable works during a run??(that would be great)

OK.next time I will use it. Thank you!

Do you think a waterpan in some sort of plastic is usable as well?

Dear all,
at the end the torch dived again in the hole, so I had a look and it seems the 10mm lead out enables thc again?

Tommylight sorry didn't get a metal pan but a plastic one for testing...this is great what a difference cutting .

pictures will follow

any hint how to embede youtube videos? video link and url did not work...

New nozzle and nice cut... Never the less to small the first hole... Fileing 12mm steel not much fun I can tell... So with a grinder the round one

Stopped the cut... Edited the second hole bit bigger started from gcode line! Great!


Is the kerf with different from material to material? Thickness?

The grid is to weak needs support.. The only material I had at the moment.









Glad I had a kilo baking soda at home....

@Tommylight, thx for mentioning the motor cover!

I am also astonished how good rack and pinion works. Even I bought 10mm AT5 belt and racks.
Not using them at the moment.

Did you see the dive-in on the z axis numbers? Got to check that out. Man you are good!
