A plasma cutter is a new type of thermal cutting machine for metal fabrication, which uses working gas and plasma arc with high-speed & high-temperature as the heat source to melt the metal locally, and blow away the molten metal with high-speed airflow at the same time to form a narrow plasma cut seams.

Some videos and pictures of things I’ve cut recently on the 4×4 scratch built plasma. Lots more on the way.

What’s up guys! Here is a overview video on how I built my CNC plasma cutter. I’m planning on doing several more detailed videos on this subject, but I wanted to start off with a cliffhanger to get some buzz going.
For the cutter itself I used the YesWelder Cut-55DS, if you want to purchase anything from the YesWelder website you can use Coupon code “Strange” at checkout for 10% off your purchase.
I’m running the controller from Mach3 via a parallel port, and I’m generating my G-code from Fusion360.
Setting up a CNC controller:
Building a metal CNC structure:
All of my hardware was purchased from eBay:
Sain Smart 5 axis CNC breakout board
external drivers
NEMA23 stepper motors (twin shaft)
8MM pillow block bearings
8MM flexible shaft couplers
8MM ACME screw (47″ long)
Steel is 2X2 angle, and 2X2 tubing for the legs, with 3″ swivel casters underneath. I did not build the bed yet, one thing at a time.

Video Description:
Building a CNC plasma cutter at home is as awesome as it sounds, albeit a little dangerous. Plasma can reach temperatures greater than 25,000C, and no metal in the path of this inferno stands a chance. In this build, Dr. D-Flo will show you how to control the motion of the plasma torch through linear actuators to achieve automated and precise cuts. This video will cover topics such as the operating principle of plasma cutters (high frequency versus low frequency plasma cutters), specialized components required for CNC plasma cutting like the floating head and water table, how to generate tool paths for plasma cutting, and many other topics.
This DIY plasma cutter (known as the LEAD plasma) is based off the OpenBuild’s LEAD Machine 1010 (Paid Link: https://geni.us/Lead-CNC). Dr. D-Flo received a BETA version of the lead plasma kit for review. Due to receiving the kit for free, this video is contains paid promotion, but Dr. D-Flo has used parts from OpenBuilds for several years now.
