Elite Member Contest - WINNER

Post by admin »

Ok I think were done with that pesky login issue...WHEW...what a pain! Sorry about that. Hope everyone's good now.

I want to give a big thank you to everyone who participates, shares, and helps out other members when they can.

No one does this more than our Elite Members and we haven't had a giveaway for our Elite Members for a while so get yourself entered in this one.

To enter you must be an Elite Member. Just reply to this thread and list what brand and model of plasma cutter your currently using and that's it.

At a date still to be determined we will randomly select an Elite Member and announce the prize :D :D :D

Elite Members are active members who have been registered for 1 year or more and make regular contributions to the site by means of helping others, sharing knowledge, sharing files, etc. Myself and moderators take time to maintain the site each day and during this time we notice member activity and select members to be in the Elite group. There is no real system other than that to select members so I know some deserving members are being overlooked. I have just added you to the group :D

Hello,

I have nothing....yes, nothing, except for an inexpensive CAD program and computer.
I work in a sheet metal shop that has a laser, and pay dearly for cutting time, and am always at the bottom of the queue in scheduling.
I am hoping to, in the next month or so, buy a house with enough shop area to set up a plasma table, TIG welder and other basic pieces of equipment, but I'm not there yet.
Thanks for allowing me to share and for sharing files with me, it has helped a great deal in reaching my goals.

John :D

We have a Samson 5x10 table and a Hypertherm 65 with both torches.

And I want to say THANK YOU to the administrator and anyone associated with making this site as great as it is. I'm always amazed at the talented folks that offer their skills and time and see the things that are designed and built. I really do appreciate what this site offers.

Started with PlasmaCam 4x4 and now have Samson 5x10 table running DesignEdge with Hypertherm Powermax 1000 plasma. Not sure how many years I have been on but the value of this site has been immeasurable. Many thanks to the Administrator and all who contribute and keep this site running.

I Purchased a new 2014 Star-lab 4x4 table from Matt at Bulltear industries in Minnesota. I'm using Linux, Command CNC, Bobcad, and Sheetcam for software. The cutter is a Hyper-therm Powermax85 with a machine torch. I also have a SuperZx Z-axis assemble with Magnetic breakaway from CandCNC. I have crashed this table too times to count, all of my own doing, inexperience, and learning curve.The table has taken all the punishment I have given it and it still cuts flawlessly. So many thanks to Matt at Bulltear, all the people at CandCNC and all administrators and members at plasma spider who have taken the time to help me out and share their drawings and projects. I had absolutely no knowledge of any CNC machines or Cad software before I purchased this table. I still find it amazing that I can take an Idea, draw it up on a computer screen and a few minutes later I can be holding that Idea in my hand. Thank you "ALL" for making this possible. I could not have got this far with out you.

I don't own my own plasma cutter, but I use a Hypertherm 400XD machine on a Koike Aronson 22'x6' Plate Pro Extreme water table at work. Its a pretty awesome machine!

I would also like the echo the great value this forum has to this profession. The plasma cutter support, reviews on tables, and of course the files available are well worth the $20/year. I've been inspired several times by others on this forum, so keep up the good work!
