I have been using my PowerMax 45 for the last year and just purchased a used Torchmate II table and a machine torch. Everything works well but I definitely need a THC for some of the larger, often thin and wavy sheets I would like to cut. $3000 for a Torchmate AVHC is out of the question. Dose anyone have experience with a Torchmate II and some of the off brand solutions that are available? Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Scott

I would contact Flashcut for advice...they have some solutions that can use your existing motors and drive boxes that are far superior to a standalone THC (like the AVHC). Height control (that works) is not cheap, however it lowers your costs and will pay for itself in time.

Thanks Jim. I was not sure they wanted my business, I left a message with a person who answered the phone on 4/16, sent an email on 4/17 and never got a response. Any other thoughts?
