Also, there is a “making of” video for this piece, that goes into detail on LinuxCNC for plasma — how to do probing, some tips on framing, and how to use the impressive cut recovery options in LinuxCNC.

Nice work !! Have you done bbq things yet ? I could see that market being fun. Or even those neat fire pits.

Thanks! I have not yet. I have thought about the fire pit option. It was suggested to me.

Very much interested in connecting plasma cutter on my lr CNC

Kindly share instructions

I built a second LowRider just for this. So I now have two, one carrying a router and one carrying a plasma torch. The former is red and black, and the latter is mostly blue and black (with a teensy bit of red). I posted a build log about it here: LowRider 3 - Plasma Build "On a Budget" - Clarksburg, WV

And I have a playlist on YouTube with info about my build: LowRider 3 CNC Plasma Cutter

Also, my collection of free printable stuff is here: Printables
