Hi I have just finished building my CNC plasma machine, except for the cutting bed. What is the most inexpensive but usable cutting bed construction? My Machine is about 90x58 so it a large area to build. I am not sure if it has to be a water bath type or just to let the slag fall through.
Anyway I am open to suggestions.
Cost is the concern here.

ThanksĀ

Water tray, otherwise your shop will be completely black in a week.
Is that in inches?
Get a 2-3mm thick plate, some 10cm wide strips on the sides, some 50x50mm L shaped profile with cuts on one side every 5cm, then add 5-8cm wide slats from 1.5-2mm wide plates.
See here for ideas
