Today Jared talks about the virtues of a Plasma Torch. An often overlooked tool, it proves its worth over and over again with it's incredible versatility. He then takes a look at an ArcDroid CNC plasma accessories, is it all hype, or does it really turn Carboard Aided Design into Computer Aided Design?

Have a ton of awesome stuff coming up! Had a ton of hurdles keeping a lot of cars from being finished and it’s about to hit like a flood gate! Also the debut of Earl Leeker at Burnout Rivals at the freedom factory!
I have a plasma cutter. Every shop needs one. Jared is correct. Very handy to have indeed.
Demo, fabrication, arts and crafts, they do it all!
@CarWizard Since you only like stock boring vehicles I can't imagine you'd use it that often. It's not like you're doing any cool mods to anything.
@@johnquinn4680 Right. No one off repairs on vintage cars, tractors, exotics with out of production parts, or duramax swaps to be seen anywhere in the wizard's lair. All kidding aside, even stock vehicles, cutting rusted parts off, personal projects seem to be a staple, and if you have to part out/scrap a car. I agree, they have a lot of uses, even without a cnc.
I bought a 55 amp yeswelder plasma from Amazon for $99 to do my 57 floors. Worked flawless.
Bonus points for your advise on getting approval from spouse to buy the new tools!
You show her the most expensive one you can find, then show her the one you're buying and give her options for a new vacuum or iron.
@@user-rd2oy9sm4ucorrect and do not forget that is well known that plasma cutters are an absolute need for putting shelves.
been watching the Grind Hard guys use thew ArcDroid what a killer unit
I think the ArcDroid is absolutely awesome! It's near the top of my list for needed shop tools right after a TIG welder, which I just got from PrimeWeld, and a lift. I didn't even know about the quick trace option. That adds even more usefulness. I saw one in action when Chris AKA Rusty Van Ranch helped me plasma cut some NLA exhaust gaskets for an old Greddy turbo. He has used it for a ton of projects. Considering how many small metal items tend to pop up as needed during fabrication, the ArcDroid makes a ton of sense. If you have a huge shop for a full table and you do a lot of volume, maybe a different story. For a small shop or home gamer the size is great. Also FWIW PrimeWeld has a 50A plasma cutter for $289 or less with whatever coupon is currently available and there are some other cheap options out there which can do at least half an inch. Totally agree it's a very useful tool to have and in my experience less messy and much quieter then cutoff wheels.
Car lifts...2 post, 4 post, Scissor, portable...etc. Plusses, minuses, cost, installation, etc...
I recently purchased a 40 watt laser etcher. Working on building a table for it.
Obviously not the correct way, but I "cut" some exhaust off by turning my T-125 welder up. More of an experiment than anything but it did work. Wasn't as ugly as I thought it would be either. Was a good use for the cheap wire spool that came with the welder. The included spool was fine. "Welded" my first welds on 19 gauge sheet steel with it.
The amount of knowledge Jared has is awesome! Thanks for sharing it! Plasma cutters are pretty sweet and even if you don’t do a lot of fab work these come in handy more than you would think! Great video keep up the awesome content!
This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for! Thanks for the breakdown, Jared. Never thought about the money-making potential with the CNC table. Definitely going to start looking at plasma cutters now. Maybe I can finally ditch the hack saw for good! Would love to see a video on electric hand tools next. Keep up the great work!
Glad it was helpful!
Make sure you can get the consumables before you buy. I made the mistake of buying one off the took truck for 5 times more than Jared's machines. I was roped into buying the electrodes and tips from the took guy. When the internet got big after 2000 I found out the gun was a French company and was able to buy the tips for a fraction of the price.
This is not related to plasma cutters but I just recently re watched the CarTrek videos and noticed that you got to have some fun in them. When I first saw them I was not aware of who you were.
Glad you found your way here! I was behind the scenes and on camera for all but the last two seasons
@@TheQuestionableGarage Didn't Freddie start you on youtube? How did you two meet?
@@adamlesandrini312 Tavarish wanted some parts for his Supra (the white one), the rest is history. :D
the money saved in time and cutting discs will justify the purchase of one.
Thank you for explaining about plasma torches. I admit, I was not aware of how you can use them. One thing I did not know is that you have to use them in combination with an air compressor. I would have liked it if you had given more explanation on the type of air compressor that is required for a plasma torch.
That turned out much better than I expected. Thank you
Hi Jared nice video 📹 and workmanship !!! I like the cutouts that you had !!!
I love my titanium flux core welder. I can’t justify this expense of these yet. This is in the one day column.
Thank you Jared. This is great info.
Nice video! Thanks for the education!
Jared, you had every married motorhead at the bit about the cute doggie heart piece. I have no idea why you haven't used it more- ArcDroid has infected numerous YT channels and uniformly gotten good press- and from all accounts, the customer service is top notch. I think Nik Blackhurst probably hates the thing, but that's Nik- old school, went up the hill going both ways bracket maker in Shropshire. He likes drill presses with wobbly chucks and such. Brings out the artist in him, he says. For the rest of us- ArcDroid is our friend!
The little cnc cutter seems awesome!
How about diagnostic tools?
I have the Primeweld Cut 60 plasma cutter Great machine and has a CNC port. Dry air is your friend to make consumables kast.
I agree everyone needs a plasma cutter, I have a thermodynamics plasma cutter, but boy do I want an arcdroid
I love that they are simple and compact!
For those with heavier steel cutting needs, there's a step-up technology called the Air-Arc gouge. So if you are repairing things like dozer blades or other heavy equipment, it's a pretty effective tool.
Remember if it says it will 3/8 that means it will only cut it smooth at 10” per minute. Now if you are going to use one in an industrial setting you need to invest your money in a Hypertherm. Out of all the companies that make plasma cutters they are the king. You can get the consumables anywhere. Most all welding supply companies have them in stock. Miller and Lincoln are hit and miss and Hobart is owed by miller and in a lot of cases there Consumables are the same
As a not old man, I would love some advice on how best to effectively convey "get off my lawn".
Great video! it would be awesome to have a few videos on how to use it and how to adjust it. Same for MIG welder.
Great suggestion!
I got my hands on an older Hypertherm years ago that was broken. After an easy fix, it is an indespesible tool in the shop. Next up, making a CNC table! Thanks Jared!
thanks Jared
The primeweld 60amp plasma is only $699 and it's way better then the titanium machine. Plus it comes with a 3 year warranty and their customer service is excellent. I have their tig225 and their mig 200 and they have been amazing. I've had the tig for 5 years now and it's been flawless. They all come with ck products and the mig comes with an aluminum spoolgun. For the money they are unmatched.
Thanks, Jared, for another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I remember being shown a plasma cutter for the first time shortly after they came out when i worked in a commercial bodyshop. We were all blown away by it and fought over using it instead of the cutting torch after the boss bought it
Enjoyed this vid. For the future, I would love to see a look at welders that is specifically focused on units that work well for a novice welding thin metal. Welding things such as car floor boards. I have a 68 Mustang that I will be working on this year. The car is here in GA if someone is looking for a car to demo on... :)
Great video Maybe talk about a ultrasonic cleaner every shop needs one and you can use it for everything
This would be great for cutting out your own Hood "Heat Extractors".
awesome as always
I have the TITANIUM 65 Amp Plasma Cutter and a TITANIUM TIG 200™ Professional AC/DC TIG Welder with 120/240V Input after seeing your other videos and having the wiring to do the 240 volt. They will replace my 24 year old Campbell Hausfeld wire welder. My garage is starting to look like a Harbor Freight store.
Question. I have a 20 gal compressor, do I need to upgrade? I’m also planning on taking the WelderUp course.
you straight up aren't supposed to move the bigger tables. When I worked in a fab shop, moving it was a BIG deal. It had to be emptied, cleaned out, torn down, re assembled, then recalibrated. it took days of downtime to move it . oh, yeah, and it needed to be fully mortar bedded. Are there easier ones to move? no doubt, but you can't get around the opportunity to clean it out, empty it, re fill it, and I'm certain re calibrating.
Sad to say this my first time seeing arcDroid , and i have to say , it just became the new next big tool imma buy for my at home shop ...cool deal jared , thanks for introducing me to that .... peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on l8z fam and keep having fun ✌🏽
If I get a CNC plasma table, I'll build one myself with help of the Mostly Printed CNC plans, an almost fully 3D printed CNC router that can be modified to hold a plasma torch.
Cool tool 😎
Great information.
Glad it was helpful!
I would love to get a archdroid. I have a vevor cut 50p and love it. For 200 it's very affordable and works great for my home shop. Mike c
hi, i have a daihatsu terios, is kinda like a suzuki jimny, unfortunately it doesn't have low range tho, cause the car is kinda uncommon,i can't really source all the parts, for example the fuel pump unit, the wole level sender unit got kinda melted when the fuel pump failed and i really couldn't find a replacement, how could i re do my fuel system with lets saw an line and aftermarket pumps? is an efi system
Great video 🎉
Man harbor freight has came A LONG WAY with their tools lately.. a lot of stuff I’ve been very impressed with the quality
Send cut send looks like a great stop gap
Now I need one
It wouldn't be a coincidence that these welders are on 3 different channels on my front page would it?
There is a multi function plasma/tig/mig/stick welder rig a dude was demonstrating on RUclips a month or so ago. I think it was bout $990
JD'S Garage cnc plasma cutter project. For about 500.00 you can build your own. That's the way I went. Cool tool.
This was interesting even when I didn’t own a car or need this type of tools
tell me about impact tools and battery-powered drills. Like Harbor freight vs. The World!
One day I'll have one of those. Not totally a need for one at the moment
electric vs air tools and witch one would be better
Sever dimension is max ugly cut.
Clean cutting is 70% of sever size.
60 amp is great for everything under 3/8.
If you're doing bodywork 40amp is great.
Anything less is sheet metal only
Jared is one cool dude
Now you just need a 3D printer to create plastic parts. You never know when they'll make one that can build parts with aluminum and steel. The Star Trek replicator isnt too far off I think!
I am going to have to get one !! ❤❤
What plasma table is that?
How about cheap impact sockets
GAWD i hope your back heals SOON!! just please... refuse TEMU
useful tools that arent designed for a mechanic but happens to be really good
Induction coil tool review. Are they as useful as people show you?
They are absolutely amazing IF you can get it on the nut. It’s a god send for rust belt folks.
What one to go with. I've been watching you a very long time.
I need to take my 3d printing to the next level and add an arcdroid.. well I guess it's 2d then but making more fun stuff.
This was terrible now I want one!! Great as always my man!
u could make questionable badges merch yourself now !
Info on your table?
Way too go jarad keep it up
What a quick, concise, insanely informative video! I too want one, but saving up for a shed in my hard first before I get one, and also a metal brake.
Glad it was helpful!
In this economy I doubt you'll make money with these, people's discretionary spending is WAY down and gas prices are WAY up.
Love the content man, a CNC table just might be in my near future, just gotta sell the idea about it being an investment to my wife😅
Please read up ! there big diff between plasma table and cnc router and cnc mill
A cnc mill or router may cost you more in tooling , shop air , tool cooling system and extraction than The Cnc be prepared to spend about the same again its price on other the other bits
They say a poor workman blames his tools - but I've always found it much easier to get a good result with the right, quality tool - but then maybe I'm a fool?
Talk about electric and air impact guns
When can I order a metal cutout of the questionable garage logo?
I Might have to make a run!
Step one 1️⃣ I need to find a shop 😅
Build something!
You rock
Be very careful in what you ask for Jarrod, as you just might get what you want and find it’s not the questionable question you wanted.
Is Harbor Frieght doing an ad drive right now? Seems like a good number of the car and fabricator yters I watch have all just dropped a video on this line of equipment they sell.
Everybody got their taxes back
@@tommydavis537 hahaha, yeah, fair. I bet it's the busy season for HB and the alike.
I’ve had these torches for a while and tried to make it about the tool in general. This wasn’t sponsored by them or asked to release at any point. Just stuck on 6 cars that won’t let me finish them for the car video so I wanted to talk torches!
@TheQuestionableGarage I ain't hating. I rock the MigMax 215. Great little welder. Just found it funny that all of sudden wave of Titanium green was on my feed.
Neat tool
Nice
Going to go so broke buying all this shit 😂
Roughly how much scrap metal does a fairly competent plasma cutter guy (or gal) go through while learning the nuances of the arcdroid software? Use hours if square footage is too much math.
These aren't the droids your looking for
Is this an infomercial channel now?
I’ve talked about tools before, and I have a comment that addresses the few weeks without car progress, but don’t worry there’s a ton of cars stuff coming.
I’ve also not seen an infomercial that the host says I’m not saying buy these, but here are shopping points.
More ads….😢 wtf?
love your show hate that u and freddy live so far away from each other.
*promo sm*
I'm gonna be honest, I think I'd rather have you take a week or two off from posting videos rather than see a bunch of Temu and Harbor Freight product ads.
This wasn’t a harbor freight ad, I used them as reference and specifically said you don’t have to buy these, aim to buy at X price point, and then showed off a small form factor cnc plasma tool.
@@TheQuestionableGarage thanks for the clarification. Always love your car videos, these ones just aren't for me. Sorry to gripe.
Can’t believe you sold out to Harbor Freight what a horrible company
Please, Jared stay away from Temu, admit you were wrong to take their $1,000 bribe and do not mention them again!
More infomercials from this channel 👎
Lets ( STEP Back ) to Go forward here. A clip or two you have made about ( WHAT TOOLS ) and Why along with comparing them to the big box stores, tool trucks and the 1/4 million dollar ( MISTAKES ) of Matco, Cornwell, Snap On, Mac, etc. Today ( I ) went to look at a few clips YOU have been talking about like a mini series of CAT and Mouse. Explanation. Starter, intermediate, D. I. Y . Shop Assistant. Car builder, Road worthy mechanic, Dealer ship Driven ( REQUIRED Tools ) versus the Reality of a BUDGET still matters. Harbor freight is NOT american made. Nor does tiawan, china, or other third world countries base there culture on USA being the top of the food chain. THINK of the term / Definition ( CRAFTSMEN ) For a Time in the 1900's to 2000's they were built, made, bought and sold on the American soil with few able to say even close to the same.
Stanely, Black & Decker, The Industrial side ( COMMERICAL ) Version De Walt, along with brands like Chanels locks, Vise Grips, Cresent, Estwing, Etc. AL used the NAME plate ( MADE in the USA. WHY does any of it matter ? A Clone of a Clone which is then CLONED to be like ( BUTT ) not actually a Form and function of the ORIGINAL is not a Value when push comes to shove. I would NOT discount all the store brands like, Kolbalt, Husky, ridged, Bauer, Hercules, etc. as being the same or worth every penny spent of saved. In a pinch * ALMOST * anything is far better then nothing. IF YOUR Business expects perfection and the Tool Trucks are who are being offered ? ? ? a Budget which is often times added to or reimbursed by the OWENRS Credit card influence who buys what and why. In the trades ( Apprentices are told. YOU NEED ( X, Y, Z, ) They often cannot afford more then the cheapest of the cheap to get them into a program or out on a job to earn a wage for quite some time unless they stick with it that is. TODAY I AM Frustrated by YOUR lack of acknowledging all this. A kid still living in his parents basement. Cannot afford a 500, 1000, or 1500, dollar tool cart, chest, cabinet or more.
Nor does that same person have the budget / Credit to spend way over there head still. I have seen plenty in this world OVER EXTEND the very essence of INCOME versus debt in less then 6 months on any given job site or employment opportunity in or right out of trades school too. YOUR lifetime of OVER KILL in tools is NOT likely even close to what a 20,30,40, or 50 years old Reality will be when getting into or upgrading in todays economy of Fantasy INFLATION ( Aggravation ) . Bu Going to LOWES, Home Depot, Menards, ACE, Walmart, Harbour Freight, or any other location that sells stuff short of internet like amazon and such PRICES are going to vary on even the most inexpensive versions of tools overall . I CHALLENGE you to STEP back to the teen age years of days gone by. Sit down and make out a WISH LIST. First in the 100 then 250 , 500 , 750, 100, 1250, 1500, all the way up to 2500 dollar amounts. What tools get added in ? What brands do you change out and WHY ( MORE importantly ) Is a Tool Box / Bag ? Maybe a few rolling piece by piece stackable version from the Big box stored s that carry it al for years to come ? YOU are NOT doing any REAL Service to tall the viewers out there by constantly saying your TOOL TRUCK Investment is now the same butt far less expensive and worthy o f the same kid of HONOR when a penny and your own two cents are contradicting it all with every breath Forwards and backwards... The VOICE of Reason has spoken YOUR welcome in advance for this REALITY check. NOW make a TRUE to Time 20204 Version of your teenage self going forward. Tools are not for the faint of heart. What is still in your own collection that was from when you got this party started ???
sorry jared but i had to unsub i cant stand informercials or just ads in general. even tool reviews. i'd rather see wrenching on cars, engines, etc but i dont see that from this channel anymore so i'm done.
Ah, the old "Let everyone know you're leaving" comment.
Sorry to see you go, you are going to miss a ton of really cool stuff coming up. And I pepper in the tool reviews as they have consistently performed better than other types of videos, and allow us to do more car and engine builds
If you read thos then we sorry to see you leave but be safe out there👍👍👍
@@TheQuestionableGarage i'm sorry man. i'll check back i think i just need to step back from the tube for a bit. i think that is more my deal right now. i had a right leg amputation and i'm stuck in a medical bed for a while. i literally sit in front of a gaming laptop i work from home and watch youtube videos all day long. the videos i need to step away from when i think of it more and more. nothing against you. i see more and more ads in videos these days and that's what is triggering me. i know, i'm weird. i have learned a lot from your channel though. i thank you for that. I do IT myself, lol i'm more like a "master mechanic" for computers if you want to put a automotive spin or label on what i do. like i said i will check back in and resub once i figure out what's going on with me.
