Building a plasma table, need advice.

What is the reason that are you asking me?

Hi Boyan

Was just hoping for reasons why you say things like "dedicated THC is a MUST" and "Avoid cheap THC which are not dedicated/ can not control axis directly".

I know very well both the pros and cons of both. I also know that certain manufacturers of certain standalone THCs made certain claims on their site and on the Mach3 forum that they agreed to remove/retract after I proved such claims were false.

My slight irritation is with those that either repeat these claims or they (like here) infer them without explanation or context. It's not a BIG irritation - but an irritation none the less.

And yes guys take it on board I pissed you all off, sorry :-)

Ok that takes guts its a bit like letting the magic smoke out of the drives.

Not sure what you mean by high precision when talking about a plasma. What sort of precision are you looking for.
Steppers are very easy to setup unlike servos and are cheaper and will also provide more than enough precision
for a router or plasma.
How about starting a build log to keep all the questions in one place and start with (if possible) some cad drawings so as the forum can see what you are trying to build.
