Your living in the sticks and my living in the sticks are two different things LOL. My closest IKEA Is 500km away hahaha... Ikea is a measuring system now. I don't get to choose who does the cutting. I contract to the company that bids the work, orders steel and then give me steel and prints and says go. So I want to keep my costs down, and make my life easier. So far I am going to try a boring bar on a mag press and see how that works. That diamond core bit looks promising as well. Are they high speed? I am not familiar with them im assuming they are available in various arbors?
As far as plasma goes, its the same as a torch. Granted more accurate but still a flame, even a LASER is considered flame cut to an engineer.
No Ikea around here either. I do live in the sticks. Closest one is 200 miles...and most people here would have to Google it to find out what it was.
A hgih def plasma would be accurate and smooth...I'd go back to the engineer and have him define things better because there are accurate flame cut systms. Flame cut versus electric arc cut is different in my book.
