Super cut 50 plasma cutter

Hey, my vice is just like that also .
OK here's one for ya, I've used day-glow kids side walk chalk, the sticks are a bit large but you can sharpen them up, when the UV light from the arc hits it it looks like a neon light, real cheep to. This has turned into quite a thread.

Next time I'm in Tar-jay I'll get some and try this. Thanks.

Sharpie makes a silver metalic marker that works quite well. You can get them at most drugs stores and super stores. Two pack is like $3-4.

Also I use $.50 white grease pencils as well. Pick up black as well when you get the silver, for aluminum.

The sharpie is great. I use those too. ( I have everything, even tungsten awl to scribe with). However, on new metal, the sharpie blends into the metal, though it does reflect light as a silvery glow when cutting.

Good point Mark, yes I only use them to cut and grind.

Great idea on the tungsten awl. I have some unsed packs of green tipped tungsten electrodes that have been laying around.

[gripe] I was gonna just give them away since Praxxair would not take my "sealed" packages back as I did not have my receipt. What is sad for them was that it was the fellow I normally buy "all" my TIG and O/A consumables from (knows me, I bought them from him and they are the only locals that sell this brand), wanted to exchange them, they lost a good customer that day. But I am lucky enough to have Welder Supply and Lake Welding a little further up the road with better pricing I found.[/gripe]

Wow, with all of these ideas I just might be able to see where I want to aim that plasma stream. Thanks.
