I had no idea there was a free nesting program, thanks for sharing!

@ManCrafting 4 года назад

Good tips. I just started using Sheetcam and the nesting feature has helped me a lot. I like the idea of saving that old file then nesting where you didn’t cut in a previous sheet. That makes it easy to use old stock. Thanks.

Love the magnetic chucks

I'm an old school saver, I mean I recycle socks till I can see my toe nails and they can be trimmed while still wearing..Makes me as happy as a kid in a candy store with a pocket full of Dollar bills..Been there lately? Quarters don't cut it, besides the quarters wear holes in your socks..I like the method to your madness Richard !!

I just got the magnetic chuck it's great I use to use my vise but it would make stuff up it's great.

Do the same thing with my laser cutter but there's a free program called deepest that kinda helps especially when they are very odd shapes... Should have watched the whole video before making the comment

@JohnHarmon 4 года назад

You're cutting in the wrong direction. As the torch moves away from you the right side gives the squarer cut.. You're cutting the opposite of that. Conventional versus climbing. I can't remember which one it is but you need to switch to the opposite one

@janeblogs324 4 года назад

How does a plasma climb cut? I'm confused

@myselfremade 3 года назад

@AntonioClaudioMichael 4 года назад

Software is pretty impressive

@Sumitso 4 года назад

Deepnest runs best on linux I have found. Having 20 different really odd sized pieces will bring it to halt as it is crunches the numbers, also the more parts, the slower it will run as it tries every permutation to make things fit. Simple shapes work the best on deepnest. Also the array function builtin to most cam programs work well too, I think a lot people in my experience don't bother using either. I have found that it is sometimes much quick to build the array out of a few parts to my liking, then simply copy/paste the array N times as needed for the final cut.

@rosswoolley2854 3 года назад

That piece you though of the table at the end. I would use as a gate panel insert. It looked good!

@42Fab 3 года назад

we've done similar before with some skeletons, comes out cool

there is a feature call common cut in pronest which is can save more than the you said in the current video i really hopr you try that . nice video keep it up

@sirnearlyheadlesnick 3 года назад

Always a pleasure. 42 Fab. Please do consider some safety when handling cut sheets off the table would not want one of those sharp cutouts to snag and send you to the ER Room and miss out on your great 👍🏾 vids tips tricks and more. 🤞🏽 Stay safe 😉

@42Fab 3 года назад

Plasma cut edges are not sharp, especially on thin material. We do what we consider safe, we don't critique others choosing more or less safety. As much as the thought is appreciated, the need to preach isn't

Nesting Saves so much material, cant tell you how many times i rearranged a plot file to maximize materiel for my job.

@apetebuildingcivilconstruc3188 3 года назад

A nice one. Is it possible to let the patterns share say for example a common line to save on also the time

@42Fab 3 года назад

Yes, but at the risk of warping steel under heat throwing off your cuts

@bigd7861 4 года назад

Just glancing at your leftovers I can see that you are still wasting a helluva lot of material! Nearly all of the edges can be used for other projects, or sold to others that would GLADLY snag it up. And, some of those cut sheets still have huge areas of uncut material.

@42Fab 4 года назад

I'll sell you the lot for 10 cents a pound. At a certain point, you can only sell so many brackets, f bombs, etc, so cutting them becomes pointless.

@ironken1796 4 года назад

@@42Fab there's always one that can do it better than you. As you stated, you get to the point of diminishing returns and it's time to let the scrapper have it. I save nests in Sheetcam like you do, disable the old profiles and drop in my new parts and rip away. Good share! Your 8% waste number sounds legit to me. When I bid production parts, I usually factor in 10% waste.

@justinsturgeon1 3 года назад

Re-watched this while wondering what to cut out of a lot of 11 and 14 gauge offcuts. Most of my parts are big so i am forced into a new sheet quickly. Nesting cant fixt me! Any ideas?

@42Fab 3 года назад

14ga is great for bottle openers/F-bombs. 11 you should have no trouble making footplates and gussets for signs, fences, etc. Might end up holding inventory, but if you have the space, you're really only in it for the cost of consumables and time.

@janeblogs324 4 года назад

Why's your steel so expensive? A 4x8 1/4" costs me $105 aud, so like $67 USD. Aussie made too, not imported crud
