Plasma Cam

Kelly, did you decide to buy one? I've heard quite a bit of mixed reviews on them. Either they like it (not love) or hate it trememdously.
I have a buddy down here (Austin) that f-ing hates his and will sell it. $3500

Holy crap, in reading and researching CNC machines and plasma tables. I was on this website http://www.samsoncnc.com/ Then I scrolled down and came across this "THING"

Looks to be rearsteer only. And I get the feeling the brothers in the 'hood would be all over this thing. I laughed initially, but I dig the **** out of this thing.

I got the Plasma Cam brochure crap also... been lookin at it and it sure seems like its geared heavily towards "light" duty... Maybe its just my perception though .

If anybody needs some custom work done we have 2 waterjet tables. PM me and I'll see if I can help you out.

Hello... and YES !! ;D

I'll do whatever I can. My family owns a fab/machine shop in Decatur. We have two large table Flow-Jet's. Waterjet cutting is more expensive than plasma/laser but if you need something and have some prints let me know and I'll get a quote for you.

How deep are your pockets ;D. It can be set to hold crazy tolerances but that means it takes longer to cut uses more garnet more labor time... it adds up pretty quick.
