Nice!

Do you mark up the steel cost at all? With the trade war and materials sky high right now this is a tough market.

1/4” away?! What is the point of having them if they are that far from contacting the rail? On my GS I have them just touching so as the gantry moves if I place my finger on the bearing it stops rolling. I’m no expert and still learning but this 1/4” seems odd to me!

I had the same issue with my GS. I detached the lead screw mount so I was able to test the tension on all the bearings across the gantry. The adjustments are a bit archaic but well worth spending time on and getting right.

Kissimmee FL?

That turned out great! I really like the way the levels are more set apart.

I have a Lincoln Square Wave 200 tig, and a Hobart Ironman 230 mig with spool gun. Both are great machines and serve me well. Both are in your price range.

Looking forward to it!

Yeah steel is ridiculous. I just did a steel roof on a property of mine. 35% hike in price from the last time I bought from them (which was last year). I asked why it went up if the tariffs were not in effect? They told me it was due to everbody anticipating the 25% hike and causing a shortage...

Interesting. What size hose and what are they using for suction?

Curious what plasma cutter are you using?

Man that looks great! What plotter cutter are you using to make the graphics?

Please post some pics of work!

CFM is what really matters. That and pipe/hose length and size (How restrictive the supply is)

Still no luck. And actually none of them have any drawing on them - all blank. What I am trying to get is a 1:1 print out of this part to use as a template as it needs to have a welded section.
