It's called commerce. Nobody's forcing anyone to pay the inflated price.
What's everyone's plans with them all? (Yes, I know! They cut metal). I just find it's rather hard to accurately cut with them exactly where you want the cut to be. I have a plasma that's been gathering dust for years.
There's a teardown of the compressor in this video.More to the point, just how good is the compressor in these things?
I was under the impression that any plasma needed a plentiful supply of clean dry air.
If the compressor in this is really up to the job it might be worth getting one to modify with a separate switch and tap/quick connect just so you could use it as a portable air compressor as well?
That shows it has the circuit for a pilot arc setup which isn't being used, wonder if it could be modified..There's a teardown of the compressor in this video.
Go on treat yourself……. You deserve itI've decided to be good and not even try
I think each store only gets 6 deliveredPicked up one in Dumfries this morning about 9.30 there were 5 on the shelf so 4 left ,i did see some one else with one in there trolly previous to me picking mine so they must have had at least 6 delivered.
Making a garden gate to start with - something with leaves and branches on it maybe, and probably shamelessly copied from one of the many nice designs that are out there. Something like this but a bit smaller https://deavita.net/metal-garden-gates-design-ideas.html?image_id=126925What's everyone's plans with them all? (Yes, I know! They cut metal).

I have found it's always worth asking both in lidl and aldi any of the staff for stock in case theres any in the warehouse area, as not everything gets put out . I have managed to get a few items that had been on offer months before.I got to my local store at about 8:15 all 6 had sold out!

So I went to the big Lidl in the next town hawkinge…… sold out!
Smaller Lidl in Folkestone town centre walked in none on the self….. grabbed the manager by the throat! (Didn’t really)
I said plasma cutter…..
He said we have one left in the back….. we don’t keep them out because they get nicked!
I’ll take that then…. Please!
Safe at home….
I'd like one but don't need one!Go on treat yourself……. You deserve it
The way they were stacked with 4 at the back and stacked up on top of one another i would have said probably 8 in dumfries ,and with the time that i went in 9.30 i would have thought they would have sold 2 prior to mine . I would normally have been in at opening time in the queue but that diden't happen today .I think each store only gets 6 delivered
