Hello all! Been quiet in here. I haven’t had much cnc work lately, but i figured I would show off my latest project that I used my ox/R7 hybrid for. I only used it to cut out the plates with the plasma cutter. I have been on a metal working kick lately. Next project will be gates for my driveway, which should use a decent amount of plasma-ox-r7 cutting. Still can’t get my thc to work correctly with planet cnc, really frustrating. If anyone has any experience with the combination of Proma thc’s and planetcnc, I would be grateful for your experience.
As for this project-I’m not a big gamer. When I game, I like to go all out though. I started off with Dirt Rally, then Dirt 4. Both fun games, but Dirt Rally is quite difficult to master. It’s a good way to let off some steam after a day of work without getting a speeding ticket or driving recklessly.
I’m using a Lotos LTP5000D plasma cutter (pilot arc, a necessity), with a planet cnc controller and their software. I fit a machine torch from ebay to it (roughly $20). Using estlcam for my CAM setup. I have sheetcam, unfortunately I haven’t spent enough time, or been able to get the post processor set up correctly to do what I want it to… Any experience from anyone there would be appreciated as well.
Bending tube is my new hobby and having a plasma table goes hand in hand with creating things!
More tools, more projects…
