Hello.
Pleased I've found this community! Hopefully I can contribute as well as asking for advice from you all:)
I run a 2x4 machine made by a uk company mainly for creative/ sculpture projects. Still ironing out some issues. Previously ran Swiftcut machine/ Hypertherm for a living. Running my own machine has been a challenge!

Re: Hello from Chester, UK
there are quite a few. shed is hard going. all the hot works I do I wouldn't be too keen on a shed but needs must...had some fun after heavy angle grinding to shape and had something covered over with a cotton (lint type) dust sheet behind the workmate I use once
... make sure I stop hot works 30mins before I leave the area just in case something is still smouldering unseen
