Hey,
I'm looking into building a 12ft x 6ft Plasma cutting machine.
I'm selecting a 12x6 as for I reckon it might be cheaper to buy 10x5 sheets and just in-case I might need the exceptional larger sheet for a job.
The type of machine I'm going to use is one of the machines in the , http://www.engineering-machinery.ie/manual-plasma ,with the straight gun nozzle instead of the trigger gun, http://www.engineering-machinery.ie/manual-plasma/81-hypertherm-duramax-mechanized-upgrade-torches-for-powermax1000-1250-and-1650
I'd appreciate anybodies advice, help or thoughts on this type of build.
What is the best material to use?
What do I use for the rails?
What do I make the gantry from?
I'm gonna be building a 12x6 table anyway as for I'm gonna buy a plasma so why not CNC it altogether.
As soon as I have some rough plans done up I will put up some images. Any extra help with this would be greatly appreciated.
