A great comparison video, Rob...thanks for sharing. The dross that looked 'welded on' is going to be an absolute PITA to remove, so mild steel + air is the way to go. Those stainless cuts looked really nice, especially on the 5mm. I've been asked about cutting stainless so I'm going to get some offcuts and have a crack, but won't be using nitrogen, though.
Hey Rusty Nitrogen is definitely not the way forward for plasma cutting steel 😆 Stainless does air cut quite well just be prepared for a bit of edge clean up. The 5mm stainless cuts were quite awesome....better than I expected. Take care matey
I was working to hypertherm recommendations...lot of good that did. I'll be doing more testing in the coming weeks and the first thing I'll try is lowering the torch height. Thank you.
Nice video Rob, Not sure but dross on the top means your going to fast that includes the cut lines you can see, but the bevel is not enough gas. But it makes me cringe on the amount of gas you are going to use. 💰💰💰
Hey Ross We tried all ways to Sunday. More gas less gas....you name it. The gas is quite cheap in the grand scheme of things. This is ....after all purely experimental 😆 Thanks for the comment though...I love this stuff 😀
@@robbroomfield468 I'm Glad i was of no use.😞 But the good side of things is your more knowledgeable than me.😃 Keep those videos coming, there great to watch.
Hey Ross No such thing as 'no use' everything is of some use. I will always try shit that you guys suggest as.....in the scheme of things I know bugger all 😆
