Thanks guys.
I got steered towards Hypertherm since I last posted as they are supposed to make a top quality machine. Am looking at this unit now: http://www.hypertherm.com/languages/...powermax30.php

gumpokc, I didn't know there were combo units available. Am buying this plasma cutter for smoother cuts in a variety of metals.


I have an oxy/acetylene outfit and a MIG welder. I'll gas weld for certain jobs and use flux-core wire in the MIG for others.
For MIG welding, the flux-core wire works well.
The addition of a PC unit will enable me to expand my product line-up.
Am looking to make weathervanes and lawn/garden figures.

I've heard there is a different kind of health risk with a plasma operation. Did either of you hear that?

Am looking at a Sears air compressor to supply air and have to find a good filter to remove water and oil from the air supply.

thanks,
Allen
