I am looking into getting a Hypertherm plasma cutter but don't know which one to get? Maybe the 1000 or 1250 with CNC interface (is the interface used)? Anything else I need to know before I start on this project? Thank You, Ron Petersen |

Hi Ron, welcome to MechMate! I don't think any of the regulars here have plasma experience, neither do I. Let's hope someone chips in with some words of wisdom. Do you have any links to info on these "Hypertherm's"? |

http://www.hypertherm.com/ Hypertherm is basically the best reliable plasma cutter out there and I am willing to spend the money for a bigger better kind. Thanks, Ron |

Hi Ron.I have a couple of plasma cutters, A cebora 30 and a Cut 40 no name, they both cut very well.the cut 40 is an inverter type, light and powerful, and will sever 3/4 inch.The hypertherm is industry standard for cnc.i think the wiring for cnc thc etc is quite straight forward.Phil |
