Plasma cutting

Yeah, I realize that for those who have been using a plasma cutter, this is not exactly anything to get excited about.....but I made my first cuts today....pretty cool.

That old trackbar bracket never stood a chance!

Any idea what kind of tip was on the cutter? Standoff or drag? With a standoff tip you can really see what you are doing and get in tighter spots. You feel kinda like Darth Vader and you just want to keep showing that steel who the boss is.

I used one for the first time about 4yrs. ago. I was cutting all the excess weight off my 2nd drag quad and it sure made things alot easier. After 10 minutes I was done and looking for neighbor's cars to chop!!! Oh the feeling of power........
