plasma cutter

[Ernie]

Bought a Lotos 50 amp plasma cutter on Prime Day at Amazon. The unit I have been looking at was $70 off so I pulled the trigger and it was delivered the next day. With my new welder and plasma cutter wired up and ready I have some steel coming so I can work on a couple projects that have been needed done.

Still have some welders, generators, drill press, kayak , and a few other things to sell to make more room to do projects I want to work on this winter. I can see a lot more of the floor.

That's a nice addition to your shop equipment. What type steel projects will you be doing?

I was a welder/fitter for years. I never had the privilege of working with a plasma cutter but our pantograph operator sure cut out some nice steel with ours. Get you some good A-500 steel and make some gongs.

My brother-in-law retired from being a medical doctor. Then he went to welding school at the age of 68. He said he always wanted to be a welder but his dad pushed him to become a doctor.

Tomorrow going to upgrade the mailbox bracket for a larger box, then I need a sturdy shelf to support an air compressor next to the overhead door to get it off a workbench. Thinking of beefing up my utility trailer or... making a trip to the trailer surplus stores in Elkhart for wheels/fenders, hitch, and lights to make a new trailer.
Will have to see what else.
Can't shoot metal targets at my range so a gong is not on my immediate list but thanks for the suggestion.

Checked out the local options for classes but there are none scheduled this year with the covid.

sorry to hear it, with your equipment you could really turn out some good ones
