As Prices Rise

Post by Joe Jones »

PlasmaCam has once again raised the price of many of the components of the PlasmaCam tables. I am once again advising people to buy a spare Go Torch machine for the parts, and merely keep it on a shelf! If you add the $998.00 CSB Customizable Size Upgrade to your DesignEdge license, then you can use the Go Torch controller box on your 4x4 or 5x10 table.

Since PlasmaCam now places a $2,000.00 price on their carriage assembly and a $500 price on their gantry motor, as well as raising the prices of the belts, cam followers and springs, etc., it only makes sense now, to purchase a Go Torch for the PARTS at the bargain price of $3,995.00 + $140.00 shipping, or whatever their current price is. You get the additional benefit of a short gantry and rails which can be converted into a nice pipe cutting accessory that can be placed onto the grates when needed, with just a little redneck engineering. :HaHa

I am not sure why they are raising their prices into the OBSCENE range, but if you plan to keep your PlasmaCam or Samson 510 tables, it still makes sense (for now :roll: ) to buy a go torch for the spare parts.
