Hey Brian glad to see you've been subscribed to both my builds for a while! The machine I ordered is from simadre tech on eBay. Not the best quality but its probbly a good starter for the mild fabrication I do! Speaking of which its on my doorstep now!

The new plasma is awesome . Still having a hard time cutting 1/4. Just not sure if it has the power for that.. Will mess with it tomorrow. Maybe air pressure needs adjustment for 1/4 because I'm running 50 amps already for 3/16 and it cuts like butter.

Picked up a 35" mud terrain spare yesterday for $40. Still pretty nice tread. Put a wheel on it today and threw it on the roof. Gonna rebuild my tire swing on the back soon.
