a little more water in the table and it will help keep things cool also. doesn't hurt anything having the water touching the part as far as cut quality. the wiggle is a new one on me, thanks for that!
Awesome vid. I have a home build cnc plasma and regularly cut 10mm - 3/8" steel and stainless on it. Didmt even know about the wiggle pierce in sheetcam. Thankyou!!
Darn it man good tip and thats what she says to :] Man i respect how you learn as much as possible and apply it to literally everything you do .that is a sweet cut
Cant wait to try this trick, I cut a lot of aluminum .125 and .25, it is a real pain how often crap gets up inside the nozzle and causes the cut angle to be awful. I also have a premier plasma table 4 X 12
what is the plasma machine you are using? are you using compressed air or f5 gas? Also, I hope you do not mind but that's a great explanation of wiggle pierce. The question came up in Langmuir forums so I linked to your video over there!
In your testing to find your wiggle settings, did you happen to run in the problem of a double wiggle pierce? I find with a long lead in, I get a double wiggle pierce, and the only way to get it to a single wiggle pierce is to have the lead in the same length as the wiggle size. Thoughts?
I have found that changing small things like NO LEAD OUT or changing other settings has an effect . You can also pay attention to what line of code does the double action and manually delete that code . Study your Gcode very carefully and it may take time to be able to spot the defunct code but its possible to fix it that way i think . Im not a pro a editing g code but it looks like its possible in mach3

Man, you do interesting and incredible things. Always great to see your projects, they're excellent.

This trick will resume sanity
Wow what a big job! Wishing you never ruin HUGE material is a big risk, unless you rework the scrap.
WOW! Awesome job.
Great job, friend

Air , would of bin better to use f5 but its beyound my budget . Not bad at all for air though
@@NOBOX7 the cuts look exceptionally nice for stainless I think!

So the wiggle helps with starting on thick material?
yes it saves the tip from being clogged up
I don't know what plasma to get. I'm wanting an Everlast. I like reviews on it. Your thoughts?
