CNC newbie here

[rusty gates]

Hi, I'm Rusty and I'm fairly new to anything CNC.
I live in Western Australia and I was going to buy a plasma cutting table, but couldn't find something locally that suited my needs or budget. I looked into shipping one into Australia but it wasn't going to be cost effective for me. So I decided to build my own table and ended up with a table with a work area of 1340 x 1340mm so it can easily take a half sheet of material.
My table is running the MyPlasmCNC controller and plasma interface unit (from Proma Elektronika), which I like because of its simplicity and ease of use. I alternate between using their inbuilt CAD or Inkscape for my designs, signs, etc.
I'm using a Razor Cut 45 plasma cutter, marketed in Australia under the Unimig banner. It's identical to the RazorWeld 45 cutter.

I recently retired, so the plasma table is the focus of my new retirement business venture.

I hope I can contribute to the forum, but in the beginning I'm sure I'll have lots of questions for you.

regards
Rusty...

Welcome aboard Rusty! That sounds like a nice build - perhaps share some photos along with the details of your actual table build. There are many other DIY owners/members here, as well as a wealth of information and plenty of cut ready files. Be sure to ask any questions and there are members here who will try to help you. Have Fun!!

Thankyou David.
I'd be happy to share some photos of my build....which section would be best to do that in, please.

I think you could post them right here if you like. Or else in the diy section I have linked to below.

I have found your Youtube channel with videos of your build. Perhaps take some selected screen shots to post here on the forum.
