Anything welding

They help!

 

Nice man does it have a water pan or is it dry I can't tell from the pic?

 

Looks like water.

Pretty sweet setup.

 

Yeah that's a pretty good deal for a 4x8.

 

yep, water pan, computer, software... Basically ready to run. Even get some training time from them too. Looks like a pretty good setup and no proprietary parts like PlasmaCAM's BS.

 

Yeah looks good what Plasma are you going with?

 

Was going to get the PM45, but just decided to bump to the PM65. Dont think I'll outgrow the 65 too quick, and the extra power for thick stuff and availability of finecut consumables for thin are bonuses

 

Yeah good choice I punch out 1/2" all day long with my PM45 so you should be good with that.

 

How much air do you need to feed that thing (at 1/2 cuts)?

 

About 6cfm I was running a little 30gal craftsman single stage for months and it did just fine if you can get over the noise I now and a 5hp 2 stage 60gal Quincy that runs 15.2cfm at 175psi.

 

Wow you bumped to a big compressor. I'll be getting a Ingersoll 60GAL single stage pushing about 12cfm.
Ordered this morning.

 

Yeah running a plasma on a little 30gal kinda sucks it didn't turn off until a about 1 to 2 min after I stopped cutting and with the blast cabinet the hi cfm is great with the new one. I wouldn't want to try and media blast with my old compressor.

 

I hear you on the Craftsman. Mine runs all the time when I'm cutting (and that's at 85psi). Thankfully, I don't cut much

And then you have to upgrade the electrical to accommodate the new demand...it never ends.

 

Yep just had to add another 30amp circuit for the compressor. No more big tools for me I'm just about maxing out the 100amp panel when cutting and welding at the same time I'm pushing about 60amp's and that's just the plasma,welder & compressor not the lights and other little things that are on

 

Yeah, I'm meeting a guy today about wiring and power for all my crap. Haha. I think I might only have a 60a panel.

 

Just about got my water table done I need to cut the slats and it's good to go.

 

The table is all blinged out! Looking good!

 

Are them casters on that there table?

Some great looking welding posted in this thread ...

I like the added touch of the logo Jerry. I was planning to do the same when mine arrives.

On another note, I found out I do in fact have 100A in my shop, so I'll be able to run my plasma/compressor and welder all at the same time as well.
