Any bigger and I'd consider it work and I'm not interested.
I have cut some 4'x8' projects by indexing. The plasmacam
has 4'x8' design capabilities.
Are you having fun with the new table? I'm always coming
up with something else to cut.

You bet I am
This one has the indexing capabilities but, I don't, yet
It intrigues me to watch it do it's work. Like lookin into a camp fire and seeing the logs burn

Let me play with the height and see what it looks like.
I may have to cut down on the detail to get it to work.
but I"ll try and let you know today.

IMHO the only thing wrong with this table is I want to just do
things on it that interest me. If I was going to try to make money with
it I'd have to change my attitude and I'm too old and cranky to put up
with the general public.

Thanks Pops, trying to keep you busy
Ok this is what I came up with. I had to take some of the detail out
of the skull but I think it still looks ok.
Let me know what you think. The only other thing is I don't have any 14 ga.
I plan on getting a 4x10 sheet of cold rolled after Christmas while my older son is here to help me unload it and get it on the transfer table. I can't get my knee to bend enough to get in the skid steer. Don't tell my wife or Dr. that I tried. HA!!!!
Still hobbling around but getting better every day.

You sound like me.
A"friend" and I use the same Dr. Last year he told the Dr that I had shoveled a ton of gravel into my drive by hand.(Which I did). Next time I saw the Dr he was PO'd at me. So I countered with : "Did you know that he(MY Friend) got on his tractor and was out hauling wood the week after his knee surgery". DR got REALLY PO'd LOL.
When my friend heard about it then he got PO'd.......
Kept the Dr. don't see much of the "Friend" anymore.

You don't need friends like that anyway.
I just do what I can get away with. When it hurts bad enough to make
you ant to pee your pants I quit.

If you're not in a hurry let's wait and do it out of 14 ga. If you are in a hurry
I've got 16 ga. Its your call. The 16 ga is only a few bucks cheaper.
I'm not worried about the money. When I get it cut I will check shipping via USPS and we'll take care of it then.

So I decided I am going to build a new bed for this rig. I got to looking for stake pockets and decided I wasn't going to pay $400 for stake pockets.
After some time on the Plasmacam and a little seat time on my stool this is what I got. Three more and I'll be ready to build a bed.
I also got my throttle cable and transmission kick down cable plus a manual choke cable. From Lokar these are close to $200. I got these from these people for $70. They are identical to Lokars if any one needs cables.
