Hello all - im new to this board

[fun4now]

sarahsarah, i found with the 125C if you over tighten the torch parts it will not function correctly. this might have some thing to do with the problem you were having but you need to be a bit more informative as to the problem for us to really help. as for the torch problem ,just tighten it up snug but not really tight.
if you have lots of stuff floating around in the shop you should blow out the inside of the spec 125 every other month at least and keep it coverd when not in use. i keep all my welding equipment coverd when not in use, it makes a big difference in the amount of garbage on the inside.

other common problems stem from a bad ground to worn out consumables. be shore you clean off a spot for a good ground and change consumables when they need it and you should have no trouble with the 125. its a great lil plasma cutter, i just love mine. its so cool to be able to have plasma at home, just too cool.

Plasma problem

I have a 375 X-treme and for some reason, if the air pressure drops below the required level, the machine will not recognize when the pressure is back up. I finally figured out that all I need to do is turn it off and then back on-in other words, it has to re-boot.

My 2 cents

Hello all, I gotta put my 2 cents in, just to say hi sarahsarah, welcome, awesome metal art! Signwave, cool flower, good job and a great reason to cherish it.

sarahsarah, I know how you feel having problems with your equip, that drives me crazy!!! I'm glad to hear it's working again

Sorry I'm a little late on the reply, been out of town, then crazy busy. Ya'll take care!

[hollidark]

Awesome

When I see your art I see TOOL, the band. Which is a good thing.

Very nice work Sarah! I'm fascinated by metal art, and have wanted to try it, but I'm afraid it's gonna look like my pencil art!!!! Welcome to the board. Looking forward to seeing more art!!!

plasma problems

hi sarah and welcome to the forum, as or your plasma cutter, i would think you probably just overheated the poor thing and it wanted a rest , i have a miller 375 extreme and a heavier esab industrial unit and they will shut down if you go over their "duty cycles". I looked at some of your work, nice stuff, when i can find some time ill send you pics of some of the art work ive done in thew past. keep up the good work, and by the way where are you from?

[SignWave]

very cool stuff. how long did it take to make the flower signwave?

Hours and hours Dusty. Soldering it all together was a challenge too. get one piece stuck and another would fall off from the heat... I finally got it all together though and it looks pretty good. This flower is at least 15 years old now i think.

[k.a.m.]

fantastic work sarahsarah, i am not sure how many people sculped here but the hobart sight has a section of just art projects, i am glad your plasma problem fixed itself, frustrating to have a tool not working.
