For the money they cost you wont be disapointed...look forward to your next post
" what sort of consumables does the parkside plasma cutter take"
But was it a bargain at the price you paid?

Or, "Hi all - is there supposed to just be a brick inside the box? Am I missing something here?"

Esab Origotech helmet cause I love my warrior tech but I can't really get another as they are discontinued.
Plan is to clean it up and repaint it in black to make another identical helmet to the one I already have.
That said, I have a sentinel A50 too but it's not ideal for the kind of jobs I do because I constantly melt front lenses.
It's my fault most likely but I can't really tig weld with it at all while with the cheaper warrior tech I'm super comfortable and I've never melt anything
A few months ago I acquired a stainless frame with a 3 phase motor mounted on it with a long shaft and a paddle on it.
I think it was for mixing paint / resin.
Its in the middle of the picture.
I finally got fed up moving it around and tripping over it last week and decided to dismantle it.
I got a nice surprise when I realised that there was a 6-1 reduction gearbox mounted on the motor.
Its a 1500 rpm 2hp motor with 250 rpm from the gearbox.
By running it through the inverter it gives me a really slow output.
This is the mixer shaft, 20mm ss rod. It's caked in resin so it will have to be attacked with the mapp torch before i strip it further.
This is the dol starter off it.

Thanks for the offer, but the postage back and forth would probably be more than the cost of the tool.Blue spots...best calipers ever. if you need to borrow the tool to remove the blues to remove pistons let me know
I'll try to get the pistons out with compressed air first and leave the blue spots in place. I understand the O-rings for the anodised inserts are not available as a genuine Yamaha part. Before I take them out I want to be sure I can get the right size O-rings locally.

It's just any pt 31 torch consumables for the parkside cutter with the internal compressor or original one without compressor.Could you put the ebay link up please so the "search" on this site finds if...these get asked for a lot here..
If its got pilot arc then I'm not sure what torch is that but they're marked on the rubber where you screw the ceramic cups on.
One I ordered on ebay https://ebay.us/m/W8Osnf
The 100pcs version I was gonna order for only a couple quid more which comes with a spare head however they're the shorter version than the ebay 40pcs but doesn't change anything other than if your knuckles are a tiny bit closer. https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EHdfrB
There's also a 60pcs extended https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Eu4fVhG
Or 150pcs extended https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EJOnUAi
Call from friend who's skid steer I'm fixing/upgrading "some large box has arrived what did you order!" 
Was £37 delivered and meant to arrive Monday/Tuesday! 1/4" grade 50 steel skid steer weldable attachment plate from vevor because it's easier and quicker and cheaper than I can make up the interface.
Was planning on cutting off the hitch and using the brackets to support the plate to grab welds however it fits perfectly through the box tube frame so I'll just leave it on and cut some brackets from bits of 10mm plate in the scrap pile.

thats always the best type of anything...i love it when im asked to do a job, have a quick search and find the part to be repaird being sold cheaper than i can repair it for...usually just order it then tell them what it cost and call it a day without wasting gas, wire or time, or like in your case i just modify to suit their original needs and it still works out quicker and cheaper
