Hi Fred - welcome aboard! Please tell us more about your table, cutter, and the cad/cam software you are using. What sorts of projects to you like to make? Perhaps post some photos of your shop setup and some of your projects.

Thanks,

Welcome aboard Fred you can use the search function in the upper right for a good look around, Many files for things you may want to cut. Being retired you have tome to explore the fun side of plasma cutting. Monograms, wall hanger, yard art, and alike for friend and family or flea market sales to finance more fun. Retirement means you work at you pace and what you want, that's my story. :Like Also you can mount a router on your table and explore other places for fun and enjoyment. :Yay Same file one metal other wood/MDF.

Hi Fred,

Which plasma table are you using, and which plasma cutter is attached to the cnc table? What software are you using, or hoping to use?

Do you want to go the "metal art" route, or are you more interested in industrial components like gussets, hinges, and saddles?
