Yup, i do agree, but please rip off the pictures from Clive as i am all out of working plasma sources for now, it looks like those 15 or more APC UPS's will come in handy these days, they do have some hefty transformers in them, will do just fine for testing but not for prolonged use, and i think i have some 3 phase 50A rectifiers and some 160A SCR's in the shop......hmm.... current controlled by Linuxcnc...... . TIMEEEEE, i need time, or 4 more copies of myself !
Wait, did i say the rip of part out loud ? Oh cr.....

@Tom, does this look ok to you?

Nice.
Thank you.
You could add at the very beginning that it is effective and very reliable, this never fails.

I personally don't think build hints should go in the software manual. They belong in the Plasma primer which deals with hardware.

And its included in the latest update that as you know is coming soon! Pending the publisher now!

Agreed. Just pointing it there should do.
