    That's really impressive, it's like the second industrial revolution that's in the home workshop. You could scan a headgasket and cut out a steel shim? Cut exhaust flanges to delete the cat converter? Turbo flanges. You'll be too busy.

    That's really impressive. Thanks for sharing!
  • @R33-GTR
    That is some genius work mate
  • @mgphotostudio
    nice work man, i like the design, is very cheep really, but it looks it could work. grettings from Argentina!

    Mate this is awesome…. And I hav now purchased an Ender 3 v1! Would be great if u did a video with Cura and the Z Hop broke down and explained!
  • Hi you may have used shielded trigger cables but not sure from the video. If not run shielded cables where you can also add a torrid ring and loop the trigger wires around it a couple of times might help. Make sure shielded cables are earthed really well. Good luck
  • is there any chance you can do another video as regards the z-axis trigger assembly? Thanks in anticipation. This may be the most straightforward video on building a CNC plasma cutter so far.
  • @kbdesignz5808
    I think I’ll have to duplicate your setup here maybe another meter longer and a bit wider.
  • Will this be my excuse to buy a plasma cutter? I am into 3d printing and metal work. Tig welding in particular. A CNC plasma cutter looks like a nice winter project. It's nice to see, I don't have to over-think it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
  • @TheSandman614
    Interested in the Gcode and "how you tricked Cura into thinking it's printing when it's cutting"
  • @MrSlim1225
    Just got the files from Cults3D, thanks for posting. I may have overlooked it, and my apologies if so, but what material are you using for all the 3d printed parts?
  • @RonaldAE86
    I built something simular from an laser engraver, but i m running in some EMF issues. What kind of plasma cutter are you using? It seems to be without pilot arc, is it right?
  • @rayturp6742
    I would suggest that you not cut but have made or make the full-length cables because splicing has been shown to cause issues from time to time in these machines. Many people talk about splicing causing response issues and such on the Creality forums.
  • Hi bro, what size tubing do you use for the rails ? And what size the motors are ?
  • So two years later how did the sale of the kits go? What do you mean you did not sell any?
