I am looking for a plasma cutter to cut clean up to 12mm and will average 1 to 2 hours a week. Pacini seem well priced. What are ye using?
Ive got 1 as a first 1, only cut 6 mm so far but fudge me better than a disc cutter!!have the latest LIDL one here, its still in the box, might get to have a go this weekend....... its supposed to do 12mm
I bought one of those but couldn't get it to cut anything. Went back to Lidlhave the latest LIDL one here, its still in the box, might get to have a go this weekend....... its supposed to do 12mm
Have to say that Oxford machine looks handy and affordable.
I have had a Plasmapart Cut 50 for about 10 yrs, occasional usage, it cuts 8/10mm tidily enough, and blows bearings out neater than oxy/propane, was about £380 then iirc.
If I was buying again I'd have that Oxford one, or one like it, with the proper torch, rather than the drag model which the cheaper ones use.
It's a much more localised heat/cut, instead of getting evrything glowing red and then blasting it all to oblivion.how do you blow a bearing out of the housing without damaging it with the plasma
They are two different things.And can you explain the difference between the torches, our is it obvious if I go on their website
