My Newb Plasma Table Attempted Build

Yeah screw compressors are very nice, for one the size I needed to do everything would cost me $15k AUD. They also have the benefit that they dont generate much moisture so you dont need a large dryer. Dryers are not cheap for a good one.

i think they said ours cost around 10k so yes they can be expensive. we have the air dryer in the system as well. most commercial machines don't deal with water in the air supply very well. Plasma applications are no different. so if you are doing the volume of work to justify the extra cost a air drying system is money well spent to save you some headaches later on.

This is probably the one I'll replace it with. I'm running dessicant dryer plus a Motorgard M-30 filter to the plasma.

I'm at the point I've been dreading on this sign job, that is cutting 4x8 indexing. I coulda probably just cut at 4ft and welded 2 pieces together, but I kind of need to know how to do this.

Added a custom stop along the Y axis to keep material squared. Just some heavy tack welds in easy to get to places in case it needs to come off.

Very nice, glad you got everything working properly so you can finally start enjoying working with it.
And i do like motion pictures, i watch everything at 1.5X or 1.75X speed. Everything.

I thought I was the only one. If I could watch tv in 1.5 or 1.75 speed, I would. Why do people on YouTube talk sooo sloowww?!
