A local machine shop purchased one several years ago and it is amazing what they can do with it. They even cut Lincoln's head out of a penny.

We have a regular EDM, but we do farm out the more intricate die stuff to the Wire EDM shop. Would love to have the chance to run one. That and a waterjet. The garden hose on the Plasma table just doesn't have enough pressure. :lol:

You have to take the nozzle off the hose and use your Thumb for more pressure. Duuuuuh! :lol:
