Lots of people have been asking for a video on the software workflow for the Langmuir Systems Crossfire plasma table. Admittedly, the manufacturer's videos and documentation are lacking, so I'll take a run at it today. We'll design a splash guard for the torch handle out of aluminum sheet metal, cut it out, and bend it into shape.

    I love this channel. Please never stop showing us all your new toys and engineering endeavors.
  • @Sbregher
    The best how-to video ever!!! Thanks a million for taking the time to create it!
  • @bigrednick100
    Best video I’ve seen this far for designing in fusion from start to finish. Well done.
  • @4legdfishman
    Wow! Amazing! You covered pretty much everything I need to know in order to make my first cut on my Crossfire Pro! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience and knowledge.
  • @David_Best
    Great video, as always James. I love the variety of your content. I look forward to your weekend videos as much as I did when I was 10 and looking forward to Mr. Wizard. I always learn something. Much appreciated.
  • @cwgreen1938
    Boy James, you have got the best play pretties that anyone could ask for. I enjoyed your video.
  • @PM.al.whatmough
    Excellent video. You did such a nice job explaining the end-end process
  • @sincityhvacr
    thank you very much man been looking everywhere to get better with fusion , thank you
  • Great job!! I like that you go through the F360 drawing of the part and explain why you do certain steps that you do. One day I will upgrade my computer and give F360 a try. I will never have any CNC equipment, but I love the drawings you produce. It is also nice to see it on the screen, and check out in 3D if there will be any issues. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge, and projects!!
  • @BigNicky77
    Wow! What a fantastic video for a prospective buyer. Definitely takes some of the anxiety out of learning the design process. Thanks you!
  • Thank you for taking the time to walk through the process step by step. I really salute you for breaking down the G-code portion. That is an area your average DIY guy doesn't quite understand. Much appreciated!!
  • @chrisj4570g
    Thank you for waking through the G code. I’ve always wondered how the language was deciphered. 👊
  • @mumblbeebee6546
    I have none of that equipment, nor do I know whether I ever will - but thank you just the same for making such great tutorial videos of the engineering that you do!
  • Thank you so much for your videos! Extremely helpful. Keep up the great work!!
  • @bigmc5706
    Dam you are such a cleaver puppy !!!. Your videos are so informative and well produced. I myself have learnt so much with what one needs to do in the design process so thank you for your video again. I'm sure others who needed some clarity with Fusion 360 like I did are now breathing a BIG sigh of relief after your video. GREAT JOB James
