To kick us off, I'm just going to copy my review:
"My first plasma cutter and first time using one but I am an experienced weldor so it was very straight forward.Right off the bat I had to install the 220V power plug that matches my equipment, and a male quick disconnect air coupler- LUCKILY I had them both in my shop otherwise it would have been a long trip in to Phoenix from New River to use the plasma cutter.
I used teflon tape on the fittings and had no issues with leaking air. One major disappointment I learned this is a "scratch start" machine, you have to touch the torch gun to the metal to create the arc, that's an indicator I'll be going through consumables more frequently.
It cut through 3/8" like a hot knife in butter, 1/2" was a little tougher, and although sloppy- I was able to cut through a 1" gokart axle. For that I am pleased as I believe this plasma cutter will save me in select situations. If I were to buy another cutter, I'd definitely shop for a non-touch machine. However I believe this one is reasonably priced- you get what you pay for."
