    That table gets some use!! I just put a 4x4 table together with a my plasm and a prime weld cut 60. I love the myplasm but it loses connection with my pc after the plasmas first fire. The program then freezes and I can’t move the table. Not sure what’s going on.

    Does the propane tank need to be manually cut off when the PID turns the Heater off after it reaches temp? My heater seems to get an extra "blast" of propane after it gets turned back on from the PID and seems to run too hot.

As for the temp being to hot, I know mine runs a bit cold so my pod show a bit warmer then what the inside of the oven shows. I think this has something to do with the temp sensor placement.

    Grow tents (4’x4’x8’ feet) make really good powder coating spray booths, they have lots of vent holes to hook up fans and are reasonably priced (I paid only 80$ for mine); and also very easy to keep clean because of the reflective Mylar that they’re made out of.

    I've used vinegar to take mill scale off for years, and it works great. Given that I tend to want my end product to be bare steel, clear coated, I always scrub the steel with a wire brush in a baking soda/water solution to prevent flash rusting. Since mill scale is the result of hot rolled steel, the bigger the piece the longer the vinegar takes to work.

    I'm building a small CNC plasma table using v-slot extrusions and nema 17 motors for x,y,z axis. I'm at the stage where I will need to build the control system. I'm new to this and trying to decide what electronics to buy. Looks like I will need motor controllers (one per motor) a power supply, and a breakout board. However, I read a breakout board that connects to the computer via Ethernet is less prone to HF interference than one which only offers USB. Can you make any product suggestions for me or offer any advice? I would like to have torch height control. This software looks like a good choice. Thanks for the vid and info. Subscribed.

Some of the more pricy units use Ethernet and yes it dose help with HF however if you use shielded cable and keep the plasma machine as fas as posable from the table I have had no issue. It all come down to what you can afford. But this unit for the price and ease of use I would highly recommend.

    With the type heater your using, unlike an electric element that heats static air within the unit, your forcing tons of air into a sealed box so of course, you have to let an equal amount of air OUT of the box. lol Instead of just venting the box, run an insulated dryer hose out of the box and back into the air intake for the heater. This way, your allowing the heater to still pick up fresh oxygen to burn but at the same time, your recirculating pre heated air rather than wasting all that energy into the room. The trick is to not completely block the intake or it won't get the fresh air for the burn.

And is only £1 a bottle it's Harpic 10x and it very fast working for mill scale and rust removal, it's all I use now for it's brilliant. You can also paint it on with a brush let it sit for a short time and then just rub it off with a cloth (wear gloves) wash it and finish it with a rub of light oil to prevent rust.

    My guess is the issue with your cured part was caused by back ionization. Try shooting your part at a lower KV setting and see if that fixes it. Also, you mentioned not trusting your heat gun because your part was showing 400 degrees quickly. That's such thin metal that reaching 400 would happen in no time. You could expect a pair of brake calipers (for example) to take longer. Lastly, how is your spray booth grounded? If you're not using a 8' copper grounding rod (easily sourced at Home Depot) you'll never see that gun's true potential. Mine is planted just outside the shop and I ran 12 AWG copper wire inside attached to my hanging rod. If you're cringing about driving a 8' rod into the ground (it's a HUGE PIA!), there's a way to install one in a couple minutes by hand, no tools and it's ridiculously easy. Happy to share if you're interested. Great video!

      This heater from mr heater has a built in auto ignite so it starts and stops on its own. So all I did was added a gas solenoid that switches on/off the gas flow once the oven is at temp. I think I go through some of this on part #2 they mod I made to the heater.

    Hope you still are happy with your purchase. I really like having all of the controls on the front in contrast to those with digital knobs, menus and sub-menus. THX!

    With a little extra research I did what you said and just pulled out my third recumbent trike tadpole frame. Dang folks think I'm all smart and stuff. Thankyou Sir from a new subscriber. God bless from northern Ontario. In the spring I'll try to post some pictures.

    Well Sir I just come a crossed your videos. I have to say thank goodness you didn't blow yourself up. I'm 73 and I just started building tadpole trikes and wanted to powder coat the frames and now with your videos and 2 home oil tanks I have a 4ft x 4ft x 5ft powder oven. I insulated with safe and sound then covered it with metal roofing. I used the glass from an old kitchen oven with oven bulbs. Again Thankyou Sir. God bless.

      Thank you so much for watching. I always like to think you can make anything with cardboard and spit lol. And it seems I am already out growing this oven. Which I guess is a good problem to have. But again thanks for watching and god bless you as well.

    Thank you for your prompt response, the primeweld cut 60 is HF, isn't it?

      Yes it is. But it still messed a bit with the computer.

    Hello, your videos are very good and illustrative. What plasma cutter do you have connected to the CNC? I just received from Proma system the board and the interface with the voltage divider to mount on a CNC that I am making, haven't you had blocking problems in the Proma electronics due to the plasma frequencies? Greetings.

      I am running a Primeweld cut 60 that is being used. I did have some interference early on but now I have my plasma cutter mounted as far away from my computer as posable and seems to have solved my problem.

    The powder is just falling off at 15:08. I'm using the same gun. And sometimes it just need to be above the item. So the powder is just falling to the painted surface and it becomes oversprayed. Have you figured out how to decide this problem? Thanks for your video.

      That was more on me not using the right air psi. And it built up to much in the gun. It did not seem to me like it was falling off the part but falling out the gun. But I am still new to powder coating and have lists to learn. But I have been getting better with setting up the gun.

      @@letkemanfabworks619 I'm also knew and don't know what to do with that spinning. Seems to me it's just kind of construction of the gun.

    You could go with the cleaning vinegar, which is a 30% solution instead of cooking (either 5% or 10%) solution. Might wash parts down with paint thinner or similar immediately after, to stop flash rust.
