Reply:Yup- she did a circle a while back that I couldn't believe she did free hand. Just a large compass I made to hold a sharpie for her to draw whatever size circle she needs and then she just cuts along the sharpie line The letters she drew with an overhead projector.Ed Conleyhttp://www.screamingbroccoli.com/MM252MM211 (Sold)Passport Plus & Spool gunLincoln SP135 Plus- (Gone to a good home)Klutch 120v Plasma cutterSO 2020 benderBeer in the fridge

Reply:My wife is good at making clothing and cutting hair.  Show her a picture of a dress or blouse and she will make a newspaper pattern that fits the customer she measured and sew it right up. She started cutting hair 35 years ago and is pretty good at it."USMCPOP" First-born son: KIA  Iraq 1/26/05Syncrowave 250 w/ Coolmate 3Dialarc 250, Idealarc 250SP-175 +Firepower TIG 160S (gave the TA 161 STL to the son)Lincwelder AC180C (1952)Victor & Smith O/A torchesMiller spot welder
Reply:Beautiful Work. My hands shake worse some days than others, but I don't think I could do that freehand even on one of my good days.How was the piece on the right (the mild steel) finished? It looks awesome.

Reply:Thats really cool good work! How long has she been doing it? I've had my plasma cutter about 6 months, just a cheap one, can't do freehand like that at all. Always found drawing pretty easy and I kind of thought plasma cutting would be the same, guess I need to keep practicing!www.blackfoxmetalcraft.co.uk
