Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 101

admin

Just used my new plasma cutter for the first time today. Bought it in March and just now got around to hooking it all up. Holy COW! That thing blazes a trail! I used my buddies at his offroad shop. It's a big well known shop around here and his doesn't come close to this thing! I was blown away at how easily it cuts. I did some practice cutting on some scrap and it was tons of fun. I see random projects coming up soon. I have a friend who is into Mickey Mouse. I think I may cut some "ears" out and put it on her lawn for Christmas. She would go crazy for that.Lincoln Power Mig 210MP MIGLincoln Power Mig 350MP - MIG and Push-PullLincoln TIG 300-300Lincoln Hobby-Weld 110v  Thanks JLAMESCK TIG TORCH, gas diffuser, pyrex cupThermal Dynamics Cutmaster 101My brain

Reply:Sandy,I have a lot of irons in the fire. I have been pulling some out and either giving them away or selling them. It's a crazy life I am sure that many people live, but mine seems unmanageable at times. I have two kids, one plays fastpitch softball, one plays baseball, both have karate classes, golf lessons, we all ride atvs, my wife plays slowpitch softball twice a week and in tournaments some weekends. My wife and I both work full time jobs. I am remodeling parts of the house, building a cabinet for my sister, I have two project one ton trucks, I gotta keep my lawn mowed, fertilized and such. I guess I hate to get into a new box if I don't have time to really put it all together, which is why I waited on the plasma. Now that it's together it's just a matter of plugging it in!! wheeeeeeAm attaching pics of the dessicant dryer and filter I used on the plasma cutter. These two pieces and dessicant added about 500bucks to the cost of the plasma itself. But I think it will really help the life of the consumables from what I have read. Dirty or wet air seems to be the worst thing for plasma cutters.Lincoln Power Mig 210MP MIGLincoln Power Mig 350MP - MIG and Push-PullLincoln TIG 300-300Lincoln Hobby-Weld 110v  Thanks JLAMESCK TIG TORCH, gas diffuser, pyrex cupThermal Dynamics Cutmaster 101My brain
Reply:wlbrown,I no longer loan anything out or let anyone use my tools. My dollar is hard earned and I want to keep the things I have in good working order. Not that I am a total jerk, but this has been a hard lesson learned over the years.Lincoln Power Mig 210MP MIGLincoln Power Mig 350MP - MIG and Push-PullLincoln TIG 300-300Lincoln Hobby-Weld 110v  Thanks JLAMESCK TIG TORCH, gas diffuser, pyrex cupThermal Dynamics Cutmaster 101My brain

Reply:I'm pleased to read this post.  I ordered my TD 101 this morning.  I didn't get the filters you got. I got the thermal dynamics inline filter that I plan on using only for the plasma.  I still have dryers/filters in before that too.  Make sure and post pics of the fun your having with it.
