A customer sent me a jpeg ... and here is the result. 42" by 48" ... to hang on the office wall for an oilfield service company.

Thanks SA ... I posted on WW that I cut this at 35 amps 80ipm ... Jim says that with HT 85 (I think it was) he cuts at 45 amps and 220ipm ... I just can't imagine that ... so I gotta play with amps and speed!!

Very good. I couldn't freehand that neat a job at any speed. You didn't use a computer guided laser cutter did you.

No Gary not freehand or a laser cutter ... the plasma cutter on my table.

Looks great.

Thanks .... Its been almost a year of learning! Inkscape, Sheetcam, Mach 3 ... settings, speed, consumables. Started with a basic setup ... Then built a water pan for the table, the THC, then floating head ... and a note pad to keep track of different metal thickness and settings.

Very impressive artwork! Just to know how all this metal holds together... Also, perfect for a ranch!
Happy horseriding, and of course, Tractoring!

Thank you ... the artwork just kinda fell into the picture ... I bought the plasma cutter and table to start cutting my own parts for the accumulators and grapples I sell .. then I built some gates with artwork and it just kinda started to spiral ... I enjoy the artwork!!
