Chicago (burbs) checkin in

Hey All,

New to this site and plasma, but not fab and machine work.

I just acquired a small plasma table to scratch an itch and hold me off until I can cut my teeth a bit. Got my eye on on JD2 MAD full size, but unfortunately their delivery schedule couldn't guarantee delivery by the end of the year.

I've got a small shop that I work out of and hand out and make stupid stuff mainly for shits-and-grins with my buddies.

Looking forward to taking advantage of what this site has to offer and hope to contribute the same.

Cheers,
Kevin.

Too late... Burnt through 2 full sheets between settin up, dialing in and making quickie things... Material is gonna be the cost, gotta find a way to offset these costs. LOL

Start with a good street sign outside of your house, let the neighbors know what you can do..

Great idea! Can't get into trouble for self sustaining hobbies... It's not just for beer money now. LOL

My machine came with a small library of files, but after consideration it appears there's a plethora of copyrighted things that I'm going to avoid.
I've cut some 16ga hot rolled, but want to figure out Aluminum and Stainless. I live in a boating community and I'm confident my neighbors will geek out on that.

My buddy just got a JD table and he seems to like it so far!
