Brandon, my condolences for your loss of your mom you better believe she’s looking down on you now with a big smile and out of pain! Brandon, As for your welding channel it got me back to welding it’s fun again to create different things and for the guy that donated the plasma cutter in honor of his friend you both inspire people to do good in this world God bless and keep them coming
Thank you so much Scott. I love this comment. At some point I might share the details of her passing. It was quite spectacular (for those that believe). As I was driving home alone I was saying a prayer out loud and asked my mom to look over me. Just as I finished, a shooting star came down what looked like on top of my house. I was totally floored! I have no doubt she is looking down on me and PAIN FREE as you pointed out. God Bless you brother! Your entered
Condolences on the passing of your mom, I know she is smiling down on you for all the people, myself included you are helping with your videos. You are one of the people that inspired me at 60 plus years to set out to learn welding and metal fabrication. Thank you.
Brandon, my condolences for the lost of your mom.She was fortunate to have such a great son.I learned a lot from this video and this will help me when using my plasma cutter.
Awwww man I love this!!!!! Thank you for sharing! THIS is why I do this channel. To help new people and get them involved. You guys rock! Your entered!
Prayers for you and your family Brandon. I lost my mother the week before Christmas 2 years ago. We all know she is proud of you for all you do that was for her and all of us. Thank you for sharing your passion with us.
Oh man, the loss of a parent is tough..... Hang tight and carry the good memories and count your blessings. Thank you for another great video, I have learned so much from your channel.
My condolences on the loss of your mom Brandon. I have an idea what you're going through, as I lost my mother to cancer way back in '95, and I was in a dazed and confused state for months afterwards. I just turned 63 on the 30th, and I still think of her daily. Keep up the good work with your informative videos my friend, and remember, your mom is always with you.
First of all, please accept our deepest condolences for the loss of your mom. Second, kudos to the subscriber that donated this plasma cutter and to you for paying it forward and giving this away after your review and demonstration. Third, I agree with your assessment that the 120V plug should be changed to a 240V plug. Other than that issue, the PLC55X seems to be a very capable little cutter. Very rarely would a small shop, DYI user need to cut thicker material than 1/2". Thanks for the link to the valuable chart for setting proper amps and air pressures. This is another informative and educational video. Well done Brandon. 👏
Very clear and informative instructions. If a newbie wins this, and they follow your guidance, they should be successful right out of the box. I was surprised it cit 5/16 on 110. My condolences. I too lost my mom to cancer. That anniversary is coming up. I’m a cancer survivor so I count each day a blessing. May you be comforted by the fact your mom is no longer suffering. It’s still hard because they take a piece of you with them.
I really appreciate this comment brother. I'm glad to hear your cancer free. It's never easy losing a parent and your right they take a piece. Its hard for sure but i know she is pain free now in eternal peace and that is very comforting. Prayers to you and your family 🙏
I just watched a video and the guy butchered the thought of buying a cutter. I watched you, and your presentation was spot on. The information was key, I may add. If someone reads this, I think a DIY-er would have a great time with this, and on a budget, it's well worth it. Maintain it, keep it stored in a designated spot, and you're good to go. I WOULD ALSO ADD YOU CAN GET A 220 PLUG SMALL WITH A ROUND GROUND UPRIGHT FLAT AND LEFT SIDE FLAT AND CAN PUT IN A 110.
Thank you very much, I appreciate it. These plasma cutters can be a huge time-saver, especially if ypu take care of them like you said. They have gotten a lot better over the years
You summed that up well Robert! I never really put it together but this WAS my first time back in the shop since her passing and it felt very comforting. It was nice to get back to some normalcy. Thank you brother! Your entered!
Thank you Tim! Cancer is such an awful disease and it takes away so much from everyone including the family. I'm at peace knowing she is in a better place now pain free. I'm sorry for your loos too man. It's never easy losing a parent. My dad passed away from cancer in 2011 and I still think of him regularly.
Sorry to hear of your loss, Brandon, it’s hard seeing a loved one slowly pass away and there is nothing you can do to help other than being there for support! I just wanted to say thank you to the gentleman who donated the plasma cutter and my condolences go out to him too! Excellent information video 🙏
Sorry for your loss... I am glad that you are back at what you do very well. The content you make and the information that you provide is assume. I have learned lots of tips that I use on my own projects aa plasma cutter would be a big plus on most of my projects. Thanks for all you do.
Sorry for your loss, time will help but it will never keep your thoughts of your love for her away very far. Cancer is a terrible disease. Thank you and the fellow who donated the cutter, that's really a kind gesture. I didn't know how much I would like to have one until I watched your video. Good luck to whoever might win, it's a great gift!
My deepest sympathy for your loss, buddy and speak for all here when I say we’re pulling for you… Always enjoy your videos and your teaching method of easy to understand explanation always helps
Brandon I watched the second video and heard your testimony about your Mom and your viewers friend. You gave us a brief look at your path back to Spirituality. I have a similar store that I share with others and am now leading a completely different path from my younger self. I am not one of those "Bible Thumpers" either. May God Bless you sir and I know your mother is watching you and would be so proud of what you have become. Keep up the great videos, I look forward to seeing more of your content.
@ntaft0904 thank you so much! I still have a lot to learn about Christianity. I said to someone not too long ago that when I read the bible I have no idea what I'm reading. They asked me "do you pray to understand it"? I wasn't prepared for such a simple answer but sometimes that is the answer. We as humans tend to make things more complicated than they need to be. I just feel so fortunate to be part of such a great communty. Thank for watching and commenting and your entered!
Another great and informative video. So sorry that you lost your Mom, such a difficult thing to go through. Seems like you turned out pretty good so she must have done a good job as a parent and i'm sure she was proud of the man you turned out to be. That's about the best gift a child can give to a parent. The plasma cutter is pretty impressive, great for any curved cut or any intricate work. I'd love to have one. Please enter me into the drawing. Thanks again for the videos and the giveaways.
Thank you so much! You just made my night about your comment of me being a good son and her being a good mom. Everyone knew including all our family and her friends that the sun shined and set on me in my moms eyes as her only child. She always bragged me up to everyone how proud she was. So I would brag to her that it's because "I'm a big deal". I actually have a video where I say this to her LOL anyways, she found a shirt with the saying "I'm kinda a big deal" and she gave it to me a few years ago. A little while after my wife and I found a shirt that says "I'm a bigger deal" and we gave it to our 4 year old grandson. We all got a kick out of it. Thank you for the smile. I always knew my mom was proud of me. Thank you for bringing up this fond memory for me. Your in brother! Good luck @jspayne001
Impressive, I'm surprised it made it to 37, very nice that the subscriber donated it and that you are giving away also. I hope someone donates a plug for ya , id like to see what it will do on 220. Sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing , we are all in your corner. Todd
That was very impressive for 120 volts! I was shocked it would cut the 5/16 without 240 volts! Great video, Brandon! Thank you as always!!!!! And thanks to the donor, that story is heart warming!!! So sorry about your Mom! Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. 😪
I was shocked it cut 5/16" on 120 volts! I am going to make up a cord adaptor and see just what this thing puts out. I've been very impressed so far. I appreciate your kind words brother!
Boop... Sorry to hear about your mothers passing... Onto Grander and Blissful times... where everyone is able to bring more and more blissful moments for oneself and others, equally!!
Brandon my condolences on the passing of your mother. I'm newbie at welding and came across your channel and think it is great. Hang in there and remember the good thinks you and your mom had. Thanks for your videos and clearly your dedication into making welding easy for novices like me
Thanks for the educational video Brandon. After the shared family grief and a whacky year, you deserve a break and some better news. Hope this New Year brings that to your future. Back on the equipment and process subject, a tool like the plasma cutter does come in handy . It can allow better results than a disc grinder or band saw. It also can cut where other tools cannot access. I would gladly place one in my shop.
I always love watching your videos. I learn so much! Sorry about losing your mom. My mom died of cancer about 10 years ago and there are so many times I wish I could sit and talk with her. Keep up the great videos!
@pdnetzer9561 thank you so much man and I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my dad around that same time and feel the same way brother. Thanks for being a surporter. Your entered!
Brandon first off my condolences to you and your family on the recent passing of your mother. Like many others here on the channel, I too lost my mother in May of '08 from heart disease at age 60. Even though that was nearly 15 years ago, there isn't a day that goes by that she doesn't cross my mind. I still remember that phone call from my dad as if it were yesterday 😔. Knowing that she is in a better place brings a sense of peace that helps ease the pain. May you and your family find that same peace and comfort to aid in the pain of losing a loved one. I hope that the viewer that donated the plasma cutter to be given away finds peace and comfort too for the loss of their friend. What a thoughtful gesture for sure. Thank you Brandon for taking the time to produce your informative videos which I am really enjoying. I am a newer subscriber and do a lot of DIY projects around the house (especially automotive). I recently just purchased a 120/240v flux core/ mig (gasless & gas option) welder for my shop and this plasma cutter would be a great addition to my tool arsenal. Keep up the great videos & take care!
@scotty.5258 thank you so much for your kind words. It's never easy losing a parent and I am very thankful for the person that donated it. We need more of this in this world. This plasma cutter is a really nice unit! Good luck and thanks for your recent SUB. It's much appreciated
It's really nice to see "real" reviews on this type of equipment. The internet is so full of paid reviews that can't be trusted. Thank you for this service you are gifting to the rest of us.
This is the only video on youtube that covers this subject completely. After I watched about 25 videos claiming that they were instructional most were advertising a crap product and pretending it was good. I had to learn this stuff through infuriating trial & error, but after watching this I know what I was doing wrong. Now I just have to dig the thing out of my electrical parts bin…thanks dude🙏
@@BrandonLund it's clear to me that you are a UA-camr that I can trust to deliver factual information. I assume that you took the time to assess the other videos on youtube and took notes, because you were precise in the delivery of ALL of the necessary information. I am an aspiring UA-camr and your channel is a good model. Sidenote: nitrogen makes up 78% of the air we breathe & the reason why the edge of plasma cuts will skate a file is due to that nitrogen, which nitrides the steel as the forced air blows on your cut, in direct contrast; the oxygen is 21%, and oxygen + around 2200f turns solid steel into an explosive fuel. That's why sometimes cuts shoot sparks for a short time. A lance is a good example of this principle. Aloha 🙏
@@BrandonLund plasma cutters generate 50,000f. 5 times hotter than the sun. Nitriding is a surface hardening practice. It causes the steel to form long solid crystalline mate site and bainite, the hardest forms of iron.
Thanks man I appreciate your reply and love to chat with fellow youtubers. I remember like it was yesterday it seemed so far away to reach a large audience. I'm just over here sharing what I love. You seem to have passion and your good with your words so you for sure will have a sucessful channel.
You are an awesome teacher! I learn so much from every video you make! I hope you aren't offended, but from the first video I watched, I have felt we have known each other in the past. You haven such a sweet spirit and make people feel
Offended? NOT AT ALL! Thats probably one of the nicest comments I have received. My goal on this channel is to stay true to how I started and be genuine. I apprecaite your support brother! It's viewers like youurself that allow this channel to keep growing. I appreciate it man!
God bless your mother. My friend was asking about a plasma cutter And I thought it would be better than a oxygen acetylene torch. I forwarded the video to my friend too. Thank you
So sorry for your loss. May you and your family find comfort and peace. I bet she was super proud of you. And to the viewer who donated, that's amazing. Keep up the amazing work!!!
Thank you so much. To say she was very proud of me would be an understatement lol. My mom made sure to tell everyone. Embarrassing as a kid but cherished as an adult
Your videos are reliable sources of information on welding tools and techniques. I enjoyed your honest appraisal of the plasma cutter. Looks like a good DIYer unit made for me
... Condolences on the passing of your Mother ,, Time will heal .... As a life long tradesman ,, a plasma cutter is one tool that I have not been able to add as yet ... having taken a short course ,showed what a useful tool and time saver they are .... just recommended to your channel .. good information .... Thanks and God Bless ..
I love your down to earth and knowledgeable discussion and demonstration. The world needs more people like you. Praying for you with the loss of your mom.
Wow having this would be wonderful and would make a great birthday gift as my birthday is within a few days of that date. I understand that will not help my chances of winning this . I was just saying it. Thank you for all of this and thank you to the gentleman who gave this to be gifted in his friend memory. That is a great friend indeed.
I'm so sorry about your mother, Brother. Im glad she's not on pain. Focus on the good time. It helps. That plasma cutter is sure cool!! I gave away two welders myself. One was mine, one was given to me. I think the fabrication community tends to help each other.
Brother I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom. Mine is 92 and I’m trying to prepare myself😢. Off the subject loved your vid on the plaz cutter. Very informative.
Brandon I pray you have peace and grace in light of losing your mother and I am certain she is smiling down on you! You are a good son and good person. Thank you for this channel. I recently just ordered a Tig/Stick from Primeweld because you motivated me to get back into this pastime. Thank you for all you do and for offering these blessing and gifts to us.
So sorry for your loss, my thoughts go out to you & your family, along with the subscriber's lost. It's wonderful that you're having a give away. Bless you & the subscriber that donated the plasma cutter
I'm so sorry to hear about your mother, I just lost my father three weeks ago. I'm a new subscriber. Found your channel researching for a plasma cutter. I love the 7-1 yeswelder but I'm going to have to save for that. Losing a parent actually costs a lot of money, I probably don't need to tell you that. I've learned so much in the last two months watching your videos. Thank you
Thanks man and welcome aboard to being part of the best welding community on the web. I appreciate your support and I wish you and your family strength and guidance through these rough times.
Sorry about your mom's passing. So hard to lose a loved one anytime, but around the holidays can make it harder. We provided care for my wife's mom with Alzheimer's until she passed...my hats off to you for being able to take of your mom. Great information on plasma cutters. I've not used one but after watching your segment, you got me excited about wanting to give it a try. Seems it could really be handy around the shop. Thanks for sharing!
Hey Brandon. Been watching you for a while, but first time commenting. My condolences for your loss of your mother. It’s tough losing your mom. Ironically, this hits home pretty hard. I’m actually in the car now helping one of my best friend’s wife (who is pregnant too) get her husband (my friend) to San Francisco for treatment for terminal brain cancer. Tough times. And god always takes the good ones. Keep your chin up and thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. I’m sure your. I’m is proud of you for it.
Thank you so much for your comment and your support. Thank you for being a good friend to your friend and his wife. Prayers to you and your friend and his family to get through this. I talk about some of the things you mentioned here in this Fridays video. It might give you some comfort. God Bless.
God bless you too buddy. And thanks for the reply. It’s very ironic because he’s such an avid welder as a diesel tractor mechanic and we share so many interests and he inspired me to weld. I got a chance to use his Miller the other day to build a firewood rack that he never got a chance to build. And the remaining material is going into my welding table. I’ll forever have him in my garage. I’m looking forward to the next video. So glad I subscribed to the channel. Thanks for the support. 🙏🏼
You are very well spoken and obviously a stand up guy. I can tell you will appreciate this weeks video. I got pretty intimate about my personal life and what i experienced. I probably will never share this level of my personal life again but what I shared i think will help others that are struggling with grief. Your friends metal going into your project is going to forever be a comfort to you and your friend would want that. We have an awesome community here. Thank you for sharing your story. Be well and be blessed🙏
Thank You my friend! You are a very good person teaching and helping us wannabe’s. Thanks again I really enjoy your work.I am sorry for your loss. God Bless you!
My deepest sympathies to you and to your generous donor. This looks like a little powerhouse of a plasma cutter given it's size and would fit right into my workshop. 🙂
Good video very informative. Sorry for your loss of you mother. Also thanks to the contributor of the plasma cutter and your plans to award it to a lucky viewer. Great idea.
I'm sorry your mom passed. As the others have said, she is looking down on you and is proud of the man you have become. You are a blessing t I all of us, your family, friends and subscribers!
Prayers for you on the loss of you mother, my mother passed 25 yrs ago I still miss her but now can have the many great memories without crying...my mother also passed from cancer and I took care of her also you are a special man and son God bless you and your family. Tim
I am there with you Brandon I lost my Mom in December and my Wife lost her Dad a week before Christmas it’s been tough all I can say is Family #1 hang in there brother.
My deepest sympathies for the loss of your mum. I lost my mum in 2008. Then my dad from cancer in 2012. I am also an only child. I really feel your pain. I do believe that there is a better place that our loved ones go to and that they are watching us. Your welding videos are so entertaining and you really make it interesting. My husband and I live in South Wales. UK . Thank you for your videos and bless you and your family ❤❤
Once again you have increased my metal working knowledge. Thank you. I am also an only child and had to be there for my mom when she passed. Bless you!
Sorry for your loss Brandon, I lost my mother in 2002 and my dad in 2003 and it still hurts to this day. Thanks so much for putting together this video, I have been wanting a plasma cutter but have never used one, this was very informative.
So sorry for the loss of your mom Brandon. I lost my mom 44 years ago (was still a teenager), lost my dad last March. Absolutely love your channel, just getting back into welding. I'm constantly looking for your next video and have gone a ways back through your channel already. Have a Lincoln 140 and a Dewalt chopsaw and a Dewalt portaband. Don't have an Oxy-Acetylene rig yet and have been contemplating getting an affordable plasma cutter for a while now. Thank the fellow that donated the plasma cutter for me and convey my sorrow for his loss as well. Best to you and your family. GP
I wish I could give you a big hug, I’m so sorry for your loss and the loss of the person that sent the plasma cutter, this was an excellent video and I really appreciate what you do ❤️
@@BrandonLund Hey Brandon we may live on opposite coasts but if you ever need someone to talk to all you have to do is call, we can exchange numbers, I sincerely mean that brother
Sorry for your loss of your mother. My condolences to you and your family and to the family of the plasma cutter donor. Thank you for taking your time and effort to make the welding and fabrication videos, they are very helpful and interesting. Wishing you a happy and prosperous New Year.
Cheers Brother. This is the anniversary week of my moms passage to heaven ❤ 🙏 Your is represented well by you. She Did good! Cheers is how us Irish do grieving 💚🌵☘
Im so sorry to hear about your mom Brandon. I know that has to be tough. I lost my Grandfather who was like a second dad to me due to inoperable skin cancer around that same area. Around and on his ear. Im sure shes looking down on you and smiling about how proud she is of you and everything you do. I hope the best for you and your family. I love your videos theyve helped me understand alot more about welding and inspired me to really get into it. Once i get me a descent machine im gonna spend hours practicing the things ive learned. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
@dustin_42489 I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your thoughful comment and your generous gift. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's never easy losing someone that your close to and it's even harder when it's family. I'm sure your Grandfather is looking down on you and proud of the kind and generaous person you are. This Friday I did something I have never done on the channel and probably never will again. I opened up about things going on in my life. For anyone struggling I hope this Fridays's episode helps and comforts them. God Bless you and your family. Thank you for your generous support and for your SUB! Your a good man.
@@BrandonLund I give my upmost respect to you for opening up about something so personal to so many people. But it can be a good thing when you have a viewer base of kind goodhearted people because their kind words can make the situation easier to handle. And you are very welcome. It wasn't much but I always like to give a little thank you donation to any youtubers that make a difference in my life whether it be through teaching me something or just general entertainment. I know how hard it can be. I hope to have a successful channel one day. my biggest problem is being awkward in front of a camera. I wasn't when I was younger but I am now. I just have to work to get over it.
Another great video. On the farm my go to cutter is the grinder and a cutting disc. Your info has now shown me a better way to get the job done. Thank you. My condolences on your loss.
Brandon I so sorry for your loss. Your open door story on your plasma cutting testing video really hit home for me too. I am a believer !!! Please include me in your February drawing. HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
Sorry about your loss. Going through the same with my mother in hospice currently. Fortunately my sister and I are able to take care of her in her home. Your videos are filling the time.
Thanks Craig. It's never easy. The last week Hospice told me my mom was declining so on Monday I moved in with her at her house and on Friday she passed away. Just remember, she can hear everything you say even if she cant communicate. I told her I loved her and that i was going to be ok. I let her know it was ok to let go. She passed away shortly after that. Enjoy every minute you have and make things right if you need to. God Bless you and your family. BTW Your entered
First my condolences for the loss in your family. 😪 A d.i.y. help for flash burn I have used for years is a drop of mineral oil in the eye before bed. Chilling the oil a little is also comforting. Great program again. I have noticed in the past ,teaching youth how to use cutting torches is very discerning to them once they understand the volatility of the fuel mix. Learning to cut would be a breeze with one of these without danger of SERIOUSLY injuring oneself from burns or explosions. Hope the manufacturer's take note about the proper male plug install before someone gets injured or a fire results. Excellent call Brandon! Now, if I can catch Santa before he goes on vacation I can convince him him that a plasma cutter would save some pain and $ by the addition of one of these to the shop!😁👍👍
Thanks David for the great comment and that awesome tip! I've even tried to convince the ER to let me take some of their numbing eye drops home to no avail. The last nurse said "I know how you guys are, you will leave here grinding stuff and not resting and getting stuff all through your eye not knowing it" LOL it was like she knew me LOL. Torches have their place but this is just so much more convenient
Always wanted to find a reasonably priced plasma cutter for home shop use. Your basic use explanation was very helpful. Thanks for showing this machine.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you and I'd love to see your cart. If you have Facebook you can share projects there. I love to see what people are working on!
Brandon: I have been a welder for about 65 of my 83 years, mostly self -taut but- was given to me ,by a very nice man that owned a machine shop in East Harwich Ma _ A lot of good hands -on training that has helped me all my life. I have found your videos very informative and entertaining and I am still learning . Thank you. Barry Fulcher Chatham Ma.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Thank you for all you are doing with your videos. Speaking for myself I have learned a lot watching you. I have never used a plasma cutter but it does look like a lot of fun. I wish you a very Happy New Year!
Sorry for your loss, I love your videos, I am a hobbyist and have been looking at small plasma cutters for my projects. Keep up the good work. Thanks Mike from Nebraska.
My prayers go out to you my friend,I don’t know the pain that you feel but I know it hurts,I lost my wife in 2019 to metastasized adenocarcinoma, stay strong and keep faith Regards Jim
Thank you I never thought emotions would be so strong Maybe because she is only gone a few years and we were married for 34 No I am trying to dive into hobbies and work I have always enjoyed, Everything I got keeps breaking lol But the military in me keeps me going to adapt and find a better way I appreciate you Brandon!! Please keep these videos coming At least I am gathering knowledge Currently I an studying. Tig It doesn’t seen that complicated
Brandon, Thanks for being a good son. A very cool gesture y both owners of this plasma cutter. Seeing the title today, I was reminded of your 50DX plasma cutter review 4 yrs ago. Is that one still going? Difficult to find too many long term success stories.
Thanks man! Oh yah its still kicking. The readout now only shows it goes up to 40 amps when it once went to 50 but it's a tank. You make me want to drag that one out now to compare lol
Good explanation about setup and use of this plasma cutter. What a positive son you are, bless your heart. Thanks for making a video during this of all times.
Sorry for your loss. I lost my mom on Christmas day 2014, miss her every day. Love your channel, easy to relate to and understand. Thanks for all the education.
Sorry to hear about your Mother.Thanks for all the help you give to beginners like me and the way you break things down to make things easy to understand.
Brandon, your point about the safety aspect is very relevant. The reason why the perimeter or edge of a cut is hardened because it is such a localized area that is heated and it cools quickly, which results in the hardening. If you used a torch, the heat affected area is much larger and cools more slowly which does not cause the hardening. It is like when you stick weld and you strike outside the weld area. It is such a small heat input and cools quickly ( like quenching). My condolences on the passing of your Mom. I went through that a couple of years ago. It is tough.
Sorry to hear of the loss of your mother, loosing a loved one is never an easy thing. I hope hope the new year brings you some peace . Just know her suffering is over. Such a tough thing to go through! Your videos are informative thank you.
So sorry for the loss of your mom. I am new to your channel and was going to make a comment but the loss of a loved one trump's all. I lost my Mom a year ago next week but I think about her everyday. I hope you will remember yours with tenderness and love as I do mine. I'll keep watching.
Brandon , so sorry for the loss of your beloved mother. It’s nice to hear that this community is giving you the inspiration to carry on and also giving you time to mourn and heal. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. Mark from Niagara
Great overview of the 55 amp plasma cutter, Brandon. Sorry about the loss of your mom Bro. I lost mine over 20 years ago. I think about her almost every day. Thanks for your time and sharing . 👍😎✌️
Sorry for your loss, Brandon. You can take solace in knowing that her suffering is over...but it still makes for a difficult holiday season. I can relate to your hardship - On Christmas Day of 2020, my father had been in the hospital battling Covid for 3 weeks. 2 weeks later, he lost the battle. And then just before Christmas of 2021, I lost my mother to cancer. It really made this Christmas a bitter-sweet one for me and my family. Best wishes to you and yours. Very informative video! Anyone new to plasma cutting will get a lot of good from this. I use my plasma cutter all the time - don't know how I ever managed without one!
Sorry to hear about your loss brother. It's tough. I lost my dad too 11 years ago, Holidays are always hard but as you said it's bitter sweet because you miss them but you also know they are in a better place now. God Bless you and your family brother. Your entered.
My Condolences to you and your family with the loss of your Mother! No matter how old we are, we miss our parents when they are gone. Hope that the New Year brings Happiness and found memories. Thank you for the incise info on Plasma cutting and what to look for as it has been a big help. So many options it can be confusing at times, especially when all you have been around are tanks and torches.
Hi Brandon My deepest condolences on your loss of your mum, may she watch over you, all your family and all of your friends. Remember that you carry your mum with you where ever you go and with everything you do. The gentleman that donated the plasma cutter my deepest condolences for his loss too. Plus it is so thank full of him to donate the plasma cutter.
@@BrandonLund thank you Brandon for putting me in the mix to win the plasma cutter, if I am picked please give the plasma cutter to a veteran near you, for I live in the UK and I would be honoured if I win that a veteran is the recipient of the prize.
Thank you Brandon, for your wonderful style and obvious joy at sharing: knowledge, yourself, and lightness. I share condolences on the loss of your mother. Grief takes as long as it needs to, it'll soften eventually, but I'm sure it is hurting, so hearts pour out to you. The day we lost my mom about a year ago, the realization came that while there is likely more sand in the bottom of the hourglass than the top (for many of us), the top is hidden and God only knows what's left. So we should make the most of every grain. Thank you for making the most of your grains and giving yourself to others, your mom done good..
This is beautiful @krainhold2885 Some people really have a gift with words and saying just the right thing at the right time in the right way. God Bless you brother for the uplifting comment. Your entered!
Condolences for the loss of your mother. Prayers for you and yours. I recently found your channel while reviewing a ZUND machine that the shop I estimate for recently purchased. I am really excited about watching your videos with my grandson and I am in the process of setting up a small metal shop for him.
Oh I love this! Your entered! As a grandfather of an almost 5 year old boy and 9 month old granddaughter I can totally relate to the joy of getting the grandkids involved in our hobbies. You rock! @pvegh2952

Brandon, my condolences for your loss of your mom you better believe she’s looking down on you now with a big smile and out of pain! Brandon, As for your welding channel it got me back to welding it’s fun again to create different things and for the guy that donated the plasma cutter in honor of his friend you both inspire people to do good in this world God bless and keep them coming
Thank you so much Scott. I love this comment. At some point I might share the details of her passing. It was quite spectacular (for those that believe). As I was driving home alone I was saying a prayer out loud and asked my mom to look over me. Just as I finished, a shooting star came down what looked like on top of my house. I was totally floored! I have no doubt she is looking down on me and PAIN FREE as you pointed out. God Bless you brother! Your entered
That's awesome, GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR MOM !
Thank you!
Condolences on the passing of your mom, I know she is smiling down on you for all the people, myself included you are helping with your videos. You are one of the people that inspired me at 60 plus years to set out to learn welding and metal fabrication. Thank you.
Awwwwe man thank you! I appreciate it. 🙏 your entered!
Brandon, my condolences for the lost of your mom.She was fortunate to have such a great son.I learned a lot from this video and this will help me when using my plasma cutter.
Thank you so much Floyd I appreciate it!
Thanks for the content. Decided to take a class with my son because of you. I'm 63, he's 33 so you've reached at least 2 viewers in a positive way.
Awwww man I love this!!!!! Thank you for sharing! THIS is why I do this channel. To help new people and get them involved. You guys rock! Your entered!
Prayers for you and your family Brandon. I lost my mother the week before Christmas 2 years ago. We all know she is proud of you for all you do that was for her and all of us. Thank you for sharing your passion with us.
Thank you so much for this and sorry for your loss man. God Bless you and your family.

Oh man, the loss of a parent is tough..... Hang tight and carry the good memories and count your blessings. Thank you for another great video, I have learned so much from your channel.
I appreciate that Thank you!
My condolences on the loss of your mom Brandon. I have an idea what you're going through, as I lost my mother to cancer way back in '95, and I was in a dazed and confused state for months afterwards. I just turned 63 on the 30th, and I still think of her daily. Keep up the good work with your informative videos my friend, and remember, your mom is always with you.
I'm sorry for your loss brother but that's how we know we had a good one. I'm sure your mom is proud and watching over you. Your entered!
First of all, please accept our deepest condolences for the loss of your mom.
Second, kudos to the subscriber that donated this plasma cutter and to you for paying it forward and giving this away after your review and demonstration.
Third, I agree with your assessment that the 120V plug should be changed to a 240V plug. Other than that issue, the PLC55X seems to be a very capable little cutter. Very rarely would a small shop, DYI user need to cut thicker material than 1/2". Thanks for the link to the valuable chart for setting proper amps and air pressures. This is another informative and educational video. Well done Brandon. 👏
Thank man I appreciate your support and your kind words 🙏
Very clear and informative instructions. If a newbie wins this, and they follow your guidance, they should be successful right out of the box. I was surprised it cit 5/16 on 110.
My condolences. I too lost my mom to cancer. That anniversary is coming up. I’m a cancer survivor so I count each day a blessing. May you be comforted by the fact your mom is no longer suffering. It’s still hard because they take a piece of you with them.
I really appreciate this comment brother. I'm glad to hear your cancer free. It's never easy losing a parent and your right they take a piece. Its hard for sure but i know she is pain free now in eternal peace and that is very comforting. Prayers to you and your family 🙏
I just watched a video and the guy butchered the thought of buying a cutter.
I watched you, and your presentation was spot on. The information was key, I may add. If someone reads this, I think a DIY-er would have a great time with this, and on a budget, it's well worth it. Maintain it, keep it stored in a designated spot, and you're good to go.
I WOULD ALSO ADD YOU CAN GET A 220 PLUG SMALL WITH A ROUND GROUND UPRIGHT FLAT AND LEFT SIDE FLAT AND CAN PUT IN A 110.
Thank you very much, I appreciate it. These plasma cutters can be a huge time-saver, especially if ypu take care of them like you said. They have gotten a lot better over the years
Thoughts and prayers for y’all Brandon!
Very generous, both you and the donator of the giveaway! Thank you for sharing and for the opportunity!
Thanks Brian I appreciate it!
Very sorry for your loss of your mom. Your video didn't skip a beat. I hope being in your shop is comforting. Take care.
You summed that up well Robert! I never really put it together but this WAS my first time back in the shop since her passing and it felt very comforting. It was nice to get back to some normalcy. Thank you brother! Your entered!
Brandon, I feel for you during this difficult time. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Thanks man I appreciate it
Sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. My Mom too passed away from cancer many years ago. “Keep on Keeping on!” Tim in northern TN
Thank you Tim! Cancer is such an awful disease and it takes away so much from everyone including the family. I'm at peace knowing she is in a better place now pain free. I'm sorry for your loos too man. It's never easy losing a parent. My dad passed away from cancer in 2011 and I still think of him regularly.
Sorry to hear of your loss, Brandon, it’s hard seeing a loved one slowly pass away and there is nothing you can do to help other than being there for support! I just wanted to say thank you to the gentleman who donated the plasma cutter and my condolences go out to him too!
Excellent information video 🙏
Thank you and what a great comment! Your entered!
Sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. Family always comes first. We’re more than happy to wait while you take care of you and yours.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it man! Your entered!
Sorry for your loss... I am glad that you are back at what you do very well. The content you make and the information that you provide is assume. I have learned lots of tips that I use on my own projects aa plasma cutter would be a big plus on most of my projects. Thanks for all you do.
Thank you so much Bruce I appreciate your support!
Sorry for your loss, time will help but it will never keep your thoughts of your love for her away very far. Cancer is a terrible disease. Thank you and the fellow who donated the cutter, that's really a kind gesture. I didn't know how much I would like to have one until I watched your video. Good luck to whoever might win, it's a great gift!
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. ❤️
My deepest sympathy for your loss, buddy and speak for all here when I say we’re pulling for you… Always enjoy your videos and your teaching method of easy to understand explanation always helps
Thank you so much it means a lot! 🙏 your entered!
Brandon I watched the second video and heard your testimony about your Mom and your viewers friend. You gave us a brief look at your path back to Spirituality. I have a similar store that I share with others and am now leading a completely different path from my younger self. I am not one of those "Bible Thumpers" either. May God Bless you sir and I know your mother is watching you and would be so proud of what you have become. Keep up the great videos, I look forward to seeing more of your content.
@ntaft0904 thank you so much! I still have a lot to learn about Christianity. I said to someone not too long ago that when I read the bible I have no idea what I'm reading. They asked me "do you pray to understand it"? I wasn't prepared for such a simple answer but sometimes that is the answer. We as humans tend to make things more complicated than they need to be. I just feel so fortunate to be part of such a great communty. Thank for watching and commenting and your entered!
Another great and informative video. So sorry that you lost your Mom, such a difficult thing to go through. Seems like you turned out pretty good so she must have done a good job as a parent and i'm sure she was proud of the man you turned out to be. That's about the best gift a child can give to a parent. The plasma cutter is pretty impressive, great for any curved cut or any intricate work. I'd love to have one. Please enter me into the drawing. Thanks again for the videos and the giveaways.
Thank you so much! You just made my night about your comment of me being a good son and her being a good mom. Everyone knew including all our family and her friends that the sun shined and set on me in my moms eyes as her only child. She always bragged me up to everyone how proud she was. So I would brag to her that it's because "I'm a big deal". I actually have a video where I say this to her LOL anyways, she found a shirt with the saying "I'm kinda a big deal" and she gave it to me a few years ago. A little while after my wife and I found a shirt that says "I'm a bigger deal" and we gave it to our 4 year old grandson. We all got a kick out of it. Thank you for the smile. I always knew my mom was proud of me. Thank you for bringing up this fond memory for me. Your in brother! Good luck @jspayne001
Impressive, I'm surprised it made it to 37, very nice that the subscriber donated it and that you are giving away also. I hope someone donates a plug for ya , id like to see what it will do on 220.
Sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing , we are all in your corner. Todd
Thank you so much Todd. I really appreciate your support! We really do have an awesome community. The best on the web in my opinion
That was very impressive for 120 volts! I was shocked it would cut the 5/16 without 240 volts! Great video, Brandon! Thank you as always!!!!! And thanks to the donor, that story is heart warming!!! So sorry about your Mom! Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. 😪
I was shocked it cut 5/16" on 120 volts! I am going to make up a cord adaptor and see just what this thing puts out. I've been very impressed so far. I appreciate your kind words brother!
Boop... Sorry to hear about your mothers passing... Onto Grander and Blissful times... where everyone is able to bring more and more blissful moments for oneself and others, equally!!
Well said! :)
Brandon my condolences on the passing of your mother. I'm newbie at welding and came across your channel and think it is great. Hang in there and remember the good thinks you and your mom had. Thanks for your videos and clearly your dedication into making welding easy for novices like me
Thanks man and welcome aboard! @tomunrath5666
Sorry about the loss of your mother. We will be praying for you that God will give you the strength to go through this.
Thank you Gerry and God Bless 🙏
Thanks for the educational video Brandon. After the shared family grief and a whacky year, you deserve a break and some better news. Hope this New Year brings that to your future. Back on the equipment and process subject, a tool like the plasma cutter does come in handy . It can allow better results than a disc grinder or band saw. It also can cut where other tools cannot access. I would gladly place one in my shop.
Thanks man and your entered!
I always love watching your videos. I learn so much! Sorry about losing your mom. My mom died of cancer about 10 years ago and there are so many times I wish I could sit and talk with her. Keep up the great videos!
@pdnetzer9561 thank you so much man and I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my dad around that same time and feel the same way brother. Thanks for being a surporter. Your entered!
Brandon first off my condolences to you and your family on the recent passing of your mother. Like many others here on the channel, I too lost my mother in May of '08 from heart disease at age 60. Even though that was nearly 15 years ago, there isn't a day that goes by that she doesn't cross my mind. I still remember that phone call from my dad as if it were yesterday 😔. Knowing that she is in a better place brings a sense of peace that helps ease the pain. May you and your family find that same peace and comfort to aid in the pain of losing a loved one. I hope that the viewer that donated the plasma cutter to be given away finds peace and comfort too for the loss of their friend. What a thoughtful gesture for sure. Thank you Brandon for taking the time to produce your informative videos which I am really enjoying. I am a newer subscriber and do a lot of DIY projects around the house (especially automotive). I recently just purchased a 120/240v flux core/ mig (gasless & gas option) welder for my shop and this plasma cutter would be a great addition to my tool arsenal. Keep up the great videos & take care!
@scotty.5258 thank you so much for your kind words. It's never easy losing a parent and I am very thankful for the person that donated it. We need more of this in this world. This plasma cutter is a really nice unit! Good luck and thanks for your recent SUB. It's much appreciated
Thanks again Brandon,every time I watch your videos I learn something, then I watch them a few more times
Glad you like them!
@@BrandonLund especially the chart for thickness and amperage/psi
Flan I found you here
It's really nice to see "real" reviews on this type of equipment. The internet is so full of paid reviews that can't be trusted. Thank you for this service you are gifting to the rest of us.
I appreciate that!
This is the only video on youtube that covers this subject completely. After I watched about 25 videos claiming that they were instructional most were advertising a crap product and pretending it was good. I had to learn this stuff through infuriating trial & error, but after watching this I know what I was doing wrong. Now I just have to dig the thing out of my electrical parts bin…thanks dude🙏
What an awesome comment, thank you so much for your support and kind words!
@@BrandonLund it's clear to me that you are a UA-camr that I can trust to deliver factual information. I assume that you took the time to assess the other videos on youtube and took notes, because you were precise in the delivery of ALL of the necessary information. I am an aspiring UA-camr and your channel is a good model. Sidenote: nitrogen makes up 78% of the air we breathe & the reason why the edge of plasma cuts will skate a file is due to that nitrogen, which nitrides the steel as the forced air blows on your cut, in direct contrast; the oxygen is 21%, and oxygen + around 2200f turns solid steel into an explosive fuel. That's why sometimes cuts shoot sparks for a short time. A lance is a good example of this principle. Aloha 🙏
@@BrandonLund plasma cutters generate 50,000f. 5 times hotter than the sun. Nitriding is a surface hardening practice. It causes the steel to form long solid crystalline mate site and bainite, the hardest forms of iron.
Thanks man I appreciate your reply and love to chat with fellow youtubers. I remember like it was yesterday it seemed so far away to reach a large audience. I'm just over here sharing what I love. You seem to have passion and your good with your words so you for sure will have a sucessful channel.
Take all the time you need. Glad you were able to be with her at the end.
Thank Andrew I was blessed. I didn't have that opportunity with my dad. Your entered brother!
You are an awesome teacher! I learn so much from every video you make! I hope you aren't offended, but from the first video I watched, I have felt we have known each other in the past. You haven such a sweet spirit and make people feel
good about themselves! Thanks for teaching me so much.
Offended? NOT AT ALL! Thats probably one of the nicest comments I have received. My goal on this channel is to stay true to how I started and be genuine. I apprecaite your support brother! It's viewers like youurself that allow this channel to keep growing. I appreciate it man!
God bless your mother. My friend was asking about a plasma cutter And I thought it would be better than a oxygen acetylene torch. I forwarded the video to my friend too. Thank you
Thanks for sharing I apprecaite it and God Bless
So sorry for your loss. May you and your family find comfort and peace. I bet she was super proud of you. And to the viewer who donated, that's amazing. Keep up the amazing work!!!
Thank you so much. To say she was very proud of me would be an understatement lol. My mom made sure to tell everyone. Embarrassing as a kid but cherished as an adult
Your videos are reliable sources of information on welding tools and techniques. I enjoyed your honest appraisal of the plasma cutter. Looks like a good DIYer unit made for me
Thank you very much! Your in! I'm really liking this unit. I'm actually going to max this out on 240 next week and see just how far we can push it
... Condolences on the passing of your Mother ,, Time will heal .... As a life long tradesman ,, a plasma cutter is one tool that I have not been able to add as yet ... having taken a short course ,showed what a useful tool and time saver they are .... just recommended to your channel .. good information .... Thanks and God Bless ..
Thank you and God bless! Your entered
Commendable, Brandon taking care of your mother, as my Mom would say, you'll get your reward in heaven. Made me think of my Mom.
This brought a tear to my eye! Thank you man! Your entered! 🙏 God Bless you and your family!
Thanks for all the lessons. It's hard to teach a old dog new tricks. You do it well !
😁👊 Thanks man!
I love your down to earth and knowledgeable discussion and demonstration. The world needs more people like you. Praying for you with the loss of your mom.
@terrypearson thank you so much and God Bless
Brandon, sorry for your loss. Thanks for putting out another quality video.
Thank you!
Wow having this would be wonderful and would make a great birthday gift as my birthday is within a few days of that date. I understand that will not help my chances of winning this . I was just saying it. Thank you for all of this and thank you to the gentleman who gave this to be gifted in his friend memory. That is a great friend indeed.
Thank you so much and your entered. Good luck!
God bless Brandon on your loss She’ll be watching stay strong and safe 👍👨🏻🏭🇬🇧
Thank you so much Paul! Your a good man. God Bless you brother!
I'm so sorry about your mother, Brother. Im glad she's not on pain. Focus on the good time. It helps. That plasma cutter is sure cool!! I gave away two welders myself. One was mine, one was given to me. I think the fabrication community tends to help each other.
I agree brother and thank you! 🙏
Brother I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom. Mine is 92 and I’m trying to prepare myself😢. Off the subject loved your vid on the plaz cutter. Very informative.
Thanks man! It's never easy. Your in brother
So sorry about ur lose man good bless ur family🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I appreciate that Thank you!
Brandon I pray you have peace and grace in light of losing your mother and I am certain she is smiling down on you! You are a good son and good person. Thank you for this channel. I recently just ordered a Tig/Stick from Primeweld because you motivated me to get back into this pastime. Thank you for all you do and for offering these blessing and gifts to us.
Thank you so much Steve! I appreciate your kind words! I'm glad your getting back into your passion. God Bless you and your family!
So sorry for your loss, my thoughts go out to you & your family, along with the subscriber's lost. It's wonderful that you're having a give away. Bless you & the subscriber that donated the plasma cutter
Thank you and God Bless your entered
I'm so sorry to hear about your mother, I just lost my father three weeks ago. I'm a new subscriber. Found your channel researching for a plasma cutter. I love the 7-1 yeswelder but I'm going to have to save for that. Losing a parent actually costs a lot of money, I probably don't need to tell you that.
I've learned so much in the last two months watching your videos. Thank you
Thanks man and welcome aboard to being part of the best welding community on the web. I appreciate your support and I wish you and your family strength and guidance through these rough times.
Sorry about your mom's passing. So hard to lose a loved one anytime, but around the holidays can make it harder. We provided care for my wife's mom with Alzheimer's until she passed...my hats off to you for being able to take of your mom. Great information on plasma cutters. I've not used one but after watching your segment, you got me excited about wanting to give it a try. Seems it could really be handy around the shop. Thanks for sharing!
@robertbiggs4934 caring for a sick parent is never easy. I apprecaite your support. Thank you!
Hey Brandon. Been watching you for a while, but first time commenting.
My condolences for your loss of your mother. It’s tough losing your mom. Ironically, this hits home pretty hard. I’m actually in the car now helping one of my best friend’s wife (who is pregnant too) get her husband (my friend) to San Francisco for treatment for terminal brain cancer. Tough times. And god always takes the good ones.
Keep your chin up and thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. I’m sure your. I’m is proud of you for it.
Thank you so much for your comment and your support. Thank you for being a good friend to your friend and his wife. Prayers to you and your friend and his family to get through this. I talk about some of the things you mentioned here in this Fridays video. It might give you some comfort. God Bless.
God bless you too buddy. And thanks for the reply. It’s very ironic because he’s such an avid welder as a diesel tractor mechanic and we share so many interests and he inspired me to weld. I got a chance to use his Miller the other day to build a firewood rack that he never got a chance to build. And the remaining material is going into my welding table. I’ll forever have him in my garage.
I’m looking forward to the next video. So glad I subscribed to the channel. Thanks for the support. 🙏🏼
Sorry for the typo in the first comment…. “Your mom is proud….”
You are very well spoken and obviously a stand up guy. I can tell you will appreciate this weeks video. I got pretty intimate about my personal life and what i experienced. I probably will never share this level of my personal life again but what I shared i think will help others that are struggling with grief. Your friends metal going into your project is going to forever be a comfort to you and your friend would want that. We have an awesome community here. Thank you for sharing your story. Be well and be blessed🙏
Thanks for showing me the basics. Safety first. Thanks for talking about your grief also.
Thank you so much!
Thank You my friend! You are a very good person teaching and helping us wannabe’s. Thanks again I really enjoy your work.I am sorry for your loss. God Bless you!
You are very welcome
My deepest sympathies to you and to your generous donor. This looks like a little powerhouse of a plasma cutter given it's size and would fit right into my workshop. 🙂
@hefalump56 thank you so much! Your entered!
I really appreciate your tutorials. Breaking things down the way you, is a trait that is becoming lost nowadays. Also, condolences for your loss.
Thank you so much! 🙏
Good video very informative. Sorry for your loss of you mother. Also thanks to the contributor of the plasma cutter and your plans to award it to a lucky viewer. Great idea.
Thanks man and your entered!
I'm sorry your mom passed. As the others have said, she is looking down on you and is proud of the man you have become. You are a blessing t I all of us, your family, friends and subscribers!

Prayers for you on the loss of you mother, my mother passed 25 yrs ago I still miss her but now can have the many great memories without crying...my mother also passed from cancer and I took care of her also you are a special man and son God bless you and your family. Tim
Thank you Tim and God Bless you. I'm sure your mom is watching over you. Caring for a sick parent isn't easy
I am there with you Brandon I lost my Mom in December and my Wife lost her Dad a week before Christmas it’s been tough all I can say is Family #1 hang in there brother.
I'm sorry for your loss brother. It's never easy losing family near the holidays. Stay strong brother. Your entered!
My deepest sympathies for the loss of your mum. I lost my mum in 2008. Then my dad from cancer in 2012. I am also an only child. I really feel your pain. I do believe that there is a better place that our loved ones go to and that they are watching us.
Your welding videos are so entertaining and you really make it interesting.
My husband and I live in South Wales. UK . Thank you for your videos and bless you and your family ❤❤
Thank you so much! It's been hard but I know she's in a better place. God Bless you and your family
Once again you have increased my metal working knowledge. Thank you. I am also an only child and had to be there for my mom when she passed. Bless you!
Wow, thank you! God Bless you!
Sorry for your loss Brandon, I lost my mother in 2002 and my dad in 2003 and it still hurts to this day. Thanks so much for putting together this video, I have been wanting a plasma cutter but have never used one, this was very informative.
Thank you so much!
So sorry for the loss of your mom Brandon. I lost my mom 44 years ago (was still a teenager), lost my dad last March. Absolutely love your channel, just getting back into welding. I'm constantly looking for your next video and have gone a ways back through your channel already. Have a Lincoln 140 and a Dewalt chopsaw and a Dewalt portaband. Don't have an Oxy-Acetylene rig yet and have been contemplating getting an affordable plasma cutter for a while now. Thank the fellow that donated the plasma cutter for me and convey my sorrow for his loss as well. Best to you and your family. GP
What a great comment. Thank you very much! Your entered!
🙏🏽
I wish I could give you a big hug, I’m so sorry for your loss and the loss of the person that sent the plasma cutter, this was an excellent video and I really appreciate what you do ❤️
You rock Dave! Your comment put a smile on my face. Thank you brother! Your entered!
@@BrandonLund Hey Brandon we may live on opposite coasts but if you ever need someone to talk to all you have to do is call, we can exchange numbers, I sincerely mean that brother
Sorry for your loss of your mother. My condolences to you and your family and to the family of the plasma cutter donor. Thank you for taking your time and effort to make the welding and fabrication videos, they are very helpful and interesting. Wishing you a happy and prosperous New Year.
Thank you Randy! Happy New Year!
Cheers Brother. This is the anniversary week of my moms passage to heaven ❤
🙏
Your is represented well by you.
She Did good!
Cheers is how us Irish do grieving 💚🌵☘
Thank you so much Chris. You made my night. God Bless and good luck!
Im so sorry to hear about your mom Brandon. I know that has to be tough. I lost my Grandfather who was like a second dad to me due to inoperable skin cancer around that same area. Around and on his ear. Im sure shes looking down on you and smiling about how proud she is of you and everything you do. I hope the best for you and your family. I love your videos theyve helped me understand alot more about welding and inspired me to really get into it. Once i get me a descent machine im gonna spend hours practicing the things ive learned. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
@dustin_42489 I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your thoughful comment and your generous gift. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's never easy losing someone that your close to and it's even harder when it's family. I'm sure your Grandfather is looking down on you and proud of the kind and generaous person you are. This Friday I did something I have never done on the channel and probably never will again. I opened up about things going on in my life. For anyone struggling I hope this Fridays's episode helps and comforts them. God Bless you and your family. Thank you for your generous support and for your SUB! Your a good man.
@@BrandonLund I give my upmost respect to you for opening up about something so personal to so many people. But it can be a good thing when you have a viewer base of kind goodhearted people because their kind words can make the situation easier to handle. And you are very welcome. It wasn't much but I always like to give a little thank you donation to any youtubers that make a difference in my life whether it be through teaching me something or just general entertainment. I know how hard it can be. I hope to have a successful channel one day. my biggest problem is being awkward in front of a camera. I wasn't when I was younger but I am now. I just have to work to get over it.
Another great video. On the farm my go to cutter is the grinder and a cutting disc. Your info has now shown me a better way to get the job done. Thank you. My condolences on your loss.
Thank you so much and I appreciate you being a recent subscriber! Welcome aboard!
Brandon I so sorry for your loss. Your open door story on your plasma cutting testing video really hit home for me too. I am a believer !!!
Please include me in your February drawing.
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
Your in brother! Happy New Year!
Now that’s something I really need. So sorry for your loss and thank you for the opportunity of winning it. Wish you the best, good sir
Thank you very much!
Sorry about your loss. Going through the same with my mother in hospice currently. Fortunately my sister and I are able to take care of her in her home. Your videos are filling the time.
Thanks Craig. It's never easy. The last week Hospice told me my mom was declining so on Monday I moved in with her at her house and on Friday she passed away. Just remember, she can hear everything you say even if she cant communicate. I told her I loved her and that i was going to be ok. I let her know it was ok to let go. She passed away shortly after that. Enjoy every minute you have and make things right if you need to. God Bless you and your family. BTW Your entered
First my condolences for the loss in your family. 😪
A d.i.y. help for flash burn I have used for years is a drop of mineral oil in the eye before bed. Chilling the oil a little is also comforting.
Great program again. I have noticed in the past ,teaching youth how to use cutting torches is very discerning to them once they understand the volatility of the fuel mix. Learning to cut would be a breeze with one of these without danger of SERIOUSLY injuring oneself from burns or explosions.
Hope the manufacturer's take note about the proper male plug install before someone gets injured or a fire results. Excellent call Brandon! Now, if I can catch Santa before he goes on vacation I can convince him him that a plasma cutter would save some pain and $ by the addition of one of these to the shop!😁👍👍
Thanks David for the great comment and that awesome tip! I've even tried to convince the ER to let me take some of their numbing eye drops home to no avail. The last nurse said "I know how you guys are, you will leave here grinding stuff and not resting and getting stuff all through your eye not knowing it" LOL it was like she knew me LOL. Torches have their place but this is just so much more convenient
Always wanted to find a reasonably priced plasma cutter for home shop use. Your basic use explanation was very helpful. Thanks for showing this machine.
Thanks man your in!
I enjoyed watching and listening to this video while I’m out in the shop fabricating my new welding cart. Thank you Brandon.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you and I'd love to see your cart. If you have Facebook you can share projects there. I love to see what people are working on!

Thank you and i'm glad to hear hes doing better now! God bless. Your entered
Brandon: I have been a welder for about 65 of my 83 years, mostly self -taut but- was given to me ,by a very nice man that owned a machine shop in East Harwich Ma _ A lot of good hands -on training that has helped me all my life. I have found your videos very informative and entertaining and I am still learning . Thank you. Barry Fulcher Chatham Ma.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Thank you for all you are doing with your videos. Speaking for myself I have learned a lot watching you. I have never used a plasma cutter but it does look like a lot of fun. I wish you a very Happy New Year!

Sorry for your loss, I love your videos, I am a hobbyist and have been looking at small plasma cutters for my projects. Keep up the good work. Thanks Mike from Nebraska.
Thanks Mike your in! 👍
My prayers go out to you my friend,I don’t know the pain that you feel but I know it hurts,I lost my wife in 2019 to metastasized adenocarcinoma, stay strong and keep faith

Jim
I'm sorry to hear that Jim. Prayers to you and your family 🙏
Thank you
I never thought emotions would be so strong
Maybe because she is only gone a few years and we were married for 34
No I am trying to dive into hobbies and work I have always enjoyed,
Everything I got keeps breaking lol
But the military in me keeps me going to adapt and find a better way
I appreciate you Brandon!!
Please keep these videos coming
At least I am gathering knowledge
Currently I an studying. Tig
It doesn’t seen that complicated
Brandon, Thanks for being a good son. A very cool gesture y both owners of this plasma cutter.
Seeing the title today, I was reminded of your 50DX plasma cutter review 4 yrs ago. Is that one still going? Difficult to find too many long term success stories.
Thanks man! Oh yah its still kicking. The readout now only shows it goes up to 40 amps when it once went to 50 but it's a tank. You make me want to drag that one out now to compare lol
@@BrandonLund Wouldn't be a bad episode. It's hard to find follow ups on those even when reviewers say they'll give a long term assessment.
Good explanation about setup and use of this plasma cutter. What a positive son you are, bless your heart. Thanks for making a video during this of all times.
Thank you very much!
Sorry for your loss. I lost my mom on Christmas day 2014, miss her every day. Love your channel, easy to relate to and understand. Thanks for all the education.
Thank you so much!
Sorry to hear about your Mother.Thanks for all the help you give to beginners like me and the way you break things down to make things easy to understand.
You are so welcome Thank you!
Brandon, your point about the safety aspect is very relevant. The reason why the perimeter or edge of a cut is hardened because it is such a localized area that is heated and it cools quickly, which results in the hardening. If you used a torch, the heat affected area is much larger and cools more slowly which does not cause the hardening. It is like when you stick weld and you strike outside the weld area. It is such a small heat input and cools quickly ( like quenching). My condolences on the passing of your Mom. I went through that a couple of years ago. It is tough.
Thanks man I appreciate it! 🙏
Sorry to hear of the loss of your mother, loosing a loved one is never an easy thing. I hope hope the new year brings you some peace . Just know her suffering is over. Such a tough thing to go through! Your videos are informative thank you.
Thank you very much for your encouragement! Good luck! Your entered!
Sorry for your lost, Thank you for all the information that you provide in your videos!!!
I appreciate that! Thank you
So sorry for the loss of your mom. I am new to your channel and was going to make a comment but the loss of a loved one trump's all. I lost my Mom a year ago next week but I think about her everyday. I hope you will remember yours with tenderness and love as I do mine.
I'll keep watching.
Thank you so much and I'm sure your mom is looking down in pride. Your entered brother!
Brandon , so sorry for the loss of your beloved mother. It’s nice to hear that this community is giving you the inspiration to carry on and also giving you time to mourn and heal. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Mark from Niagara
Thank you so much Mark @WoodysPremiumFirewood I am truly blessed to have this awesome community surrounding me!
I'm just getting into plasma cutting and mig welding. I watch your videos to learn about these processes. Help teaching!
Thank you so much!
Great overview of the 55 amp plasma cutter, Brandon. Sorry about the loss of your mom Bro. I lost mine over 20 years ago. I think about her almost every day. Thanks for your time and sharing . 👍😎✌️
Thank you so much man. Its never easy. I lost my dad 11 years ago. I appreciate your support brother!
Sorry for your loss, Brandon. You can take solace in knowing that her suffering is over...but it still makes for a difficult holiday season. I can relate to your hardship - On Christmas Day of 2020, my father had been in the hospital battling Covid for 3 weeks. 2 weeks later, he lost the battle. And then just before Christmas of 2021, I lost my mother to cancer. It really made this Christmas a bitter-sweet one for me and my family. Best wishes to you and yours.
Very informative video! Anyone new to plasma cutting will get a lot of good from this. I use my plasma cutter all the time - don't know how I ever managed without one!
Sorry to hear about your loss brother. It's tough. I lost my dad too 11 years ago, Holidays are always hard but as you said it's bitter sweet because you miss them but you also know they are in a better place now. God Bless you and your family brother. Your entered.
My Condolences to you and your family with the loss of your Mother! No matter how old we are, we miss our parents when they are gone. Hope that the New Year brings Happiness and found memories. Thank you for the incise info on Plasma cutting and what to look for as it has been a big help. So many options it can be confusing at times, especially when all you have been around are tanks and torches.
I remember when I first started cutting using a plasma. All I could see were the dollar signs of cost savings! Its pretty cool brother. Your entered!
Hi Brandon
My deepest condolences on your loss of your mum, may she watch over you, all your family and all of your friends.
Remember that you carry your mum with you where ever you go and with everything you do.
The gentleman that donated the plasma cutter my deepest condolences for his loss too.
Plus it is so thank full of him to donate the plasma cutter.
I love this! Thank you! You are so right! You are entered!
@@BrandonLund thank you Brandon for putting me in the mix to win the plasma cutter, if I am picked please give the plasma cutter to a veteran near you, for I live in the UK and I would be honoured if I win that a veteran is the recipient of the prize.
I am excited to retire my torch and start using a Plasma cutter. I am going to start shopping soon. Thanks for pushing me over the edge.
Go for it!
Sorry for your loss!!! Loosing parents is sooooo hard! Stay strong my brother.
Thanks man I appreciate it!
Thank you Brandon, for your wonderful style and obvious joy at sharing: knowledge, yourself, and lightness.
I share condolences on the loss of your mother. Grief takes as long as it needs to, it'll soften eventually, but I'm sure it is hurting, so hearts pour out to you. The day we lost my mom about a year ago, the realization came that while there is likely more sand in the bottom of the hourglass than the top (for many of us), the top is hidden and God only knows what's left. So we should make the most of every grain. Thank you for making the most of your grains and giving yourself to others, your mom done good..
This is beautiful @krainhold2885 Some people really have a gift with words and saying just the right thing at the right time in the right way. God Bless you brother for the uplifting comment. Your entered!
Condolences for the loss of your mother. Prayers for you and yours. I recently found your channel while reviewing a ZUND machine that the shop I estimate for recently purchased. I am really excited about watching your videos with my grandson and I am in the process of setting up a small metal shop for him.
Oh I love this! Your entered! As a grandfather of an almost 5 year old boy and 9 month old granddaughter I can totally relate to the joy of getting the grandkids involved in our hobbies. You rock! @pvegh2952
