converting hand torch to machine torch?

   / converting hand torch to machine torch? #21  
Need to ask, I am getting a pretty good amount of dross, is this because I am moving to slow or moving to fast, or maybe not enough air pressure, to much air pressure.
As far as the speed, look for the angle of the sparks leaving the cut, try for about 45° . If they are going strait down, you are way too slow. If they are more than 55°, you are close to losing the cut.

I am thinking I might be going to slow, its hard to hold a switch and run a drill at the same time, with arms spread wide open. LOL.

Bill, I can't help but think it would work best if you disconnected the drill/drive mechanism, and pulled your plasma torch by hand rolling it along your homemade track.
