I cut this yesterday

Farm is in Butler County, just south of Montgomery.
I am in Birmingham.

I'll get my thoughts together for my thread and post soon.

plasma tables are fun. this is the gate i made. my wife did the artwork. i did all the slave work

used 600# of steel to make it. had to install a 1/4" thick 5x5 into ground to free support the gate. no wheels needed to use.

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!!

Nice job ... Thats awesome. What size table and what cutter?

hypertherm powermax 1000 and a dynatorch 4x8 table.

i also made a smaller access gate. i had to figure a way to attach it to lap siding. again the plasma torch to the rescue

heres my table

A coworker has a plasma cam. Had him make me a few things on occasion. It is truly impressive what those things can do:thumbsup:

It is impressive ... I'm amazed everytime. Take a picture, drawing whatever and before long its being cut. It boggles my mind! I'm a computer idiot and to think someone had to write all that programming .... move this direction, cut here, up down ... when I get one cut ...I'm kinda like "oh ya man" !!!!
