Would you like to see a video showing how to connect the wiper motor (or other similar) to the voltage regulator, limit switches, left-right switch, etc.?🙂

to really finish it off it needs covers over the rails so the sparks don't pit them and crap doesn't get in the bearings.

That is EASILY the cleanest cut I've ever seen by a plasma cutter.

Yeah it was a bit misleading to say using a wind shield wiper, should have said plasma cutting is easier not cutting metal was easier. I was expecting to see some sort of hand saw being pulled back and forth by a wind shield wiper. Basically just replaced a stepper motor with something a little simpler but ultimately probably the same price considering how cheap a stepper motor is.

@@bighitstepside Absolutely. I seen better.

Im not an engineer, but my Dad was a Tool maker, so I really appreciate the skill and knowledge that has gone into this product.

This is how KZread must be!!! Sharing ideas to make a better world.

Designs are always a perfect mix of elegance and practicality. Engineering at its best.

So simple yet SO HELPFUL!!! I LOVE the stuff you come up with!!!

LOVE IT, someone made something without costly CNC machines, lathes, mills, etc. My kinda guy

This is almost exactly the design I was planning, just with a different motor. I was adapting the linear motor from a treadmill. Thank you for the excellent video!

Dude, you are a genius. I'm slowly getting through your videos. Really a joy to watch. I'm loving the pallet truck work stand too👌

Stuff like this is why I became a fabricator, you can make anything out of metal with enough imagination and ingenuity!

That's an innovative way of using resources in the right manner. Superb, Derek!❤

Jest wiele filmow na YT prezentujacych wykonanie tego typu przecinarki plazmowej ale Twoje wykonanie jest bezapelacyjnie najlepsze! Estetyka, pulpit sterujacy, elektromagnes... super! Pozdrawiam :-)

Nicely done Derek. It's interesting to see how people have integrated angle grinders, and wiper motors into their designs and builds. Thanks for the new video-I'm looking forward to seeing it in the future, or if there's any design changes after using it for awhile. God bless.

Amazing! I loved this video. I have a couple small ideas that might add to the build. 1. A switch that faces down pressing against the work surface that when released (because there is no more material - aka reached the end of the cut) would cut power to the cutter/torch/naughty bit. If you orient the switch in a certain way, it may even be able to facilitate a “reset” function so the head can return to its start position without ripping the switch bit off. 2. Add another AXIS! Would be a big big addition to this thing but you would have a 4axis steel cutting money printer! Ok, this one is a bit more than the “small ideas” but you seem to make small work of big projects! e.x. cutting steel! 3. Drink holder. To hold your drink. Amazing work, subbed! Mas!

Excellent!! old quote: "simplicity is the key note to a good design"

My favorite part is where you used an inexpensive electromagnet from a magnetic door latch. Very creative solution!

Great work with off-the-shelf parts and great engineering. Thanks and keep posting 😊

Brilliant! I love putting old things to new uses whenever possible.

Sweet piece of kit! Usually folks would forego the setup of such a device for the ease of just laying a straight edge as a guide and holding the torch/plasma cutter.

Awesome project seen others build similar but this was best so far, simple and easy to use and takes up very little room!

To właśnie jest robota na wysokim poziomie 👏Elegancko 👍🏻

The world is full of some very smart people. You sir, are one of them. It is people like you and I who may help save this world from the human race someday. Keep up the fantastic work!

Bardzo pomysłowy projekt, znakomicie wykonany. Well done and thank you for sharing 👏👏👍😀

A very handy addition for anyone who has a plasma cutter ! - Well done - Great job by Made In Poland as always. 👍👍👍👍👍

That’s very nice. I was expecting something that wasn’t truly worth having. I’m not a fabricator by any means but I’ve used steel clamped down over my marks to guide the tip because I’m not steady. I’ve even used wheel bearings to spin metal in a circle while the nozzle was mounted in a vise to cut circles

Doesn't get much better than that! Thank you for sharing.

We had a Machitech plasma table we could put 3 4 x 8 sheets of steel and aluminum, the controler had pre-installed designs which was convenuent, just walk up to the table pick you design load the measurment in and hit start. What a time saver. Now they cut steel with water, amazing!

On your final cut your kerf lines (the vertical lines on the edge of the plate) are running away from the direction of travel. Slow your speed slightly to reduce the slag and get a better cut. Kerf lines should be perpendicular to the plates surface when cutting.

I have watched your video many times now and can't stop watching it. I love it when a plan comes together and you now have a most useful addition to your tools. This thing can now save you tons of time!!!

Not sure if I see it as a time saver. He has to stand there anyways while it cuts so he actually could've saved more time and money if he made a simple straight edge guide when you consider the time and money invested in this project

Looks handy. Possibly you could make a reference guide with a pivot point. Or with a few set pins, so it’s removable for when you’re cutting.

NICE piece of engineering. Clear vision - good approach - excellent planning. Love the electromagnet for stabilization.

Jak zawsze świetny pomysł i wykonanie!

One useful add on would be a pointer attached to the torch holder at its center line so you could line up on lines drawn or marked on the steel plate

man I’ve watched you for years your brilliant thank you.

Impressive. At first, I thought the wiper motor was going to drive a power hack saw, and thought it would be under-powered for that. But your cutter makes a cleaner cut than a hacksaw! Well done!

VERY COOL AND NEATLY DONE, AS ALWAYS! IT SEEMS TO ME THAT NOT ONLY FOR PLASMA CUTTER CAN BE USED

Twoje projekty wymiatają, gratuluję pomysłów i wykonania, czasem jak każdy bym coś zmienił lub zrobił trochę inaczej ale to szczegóły, przy tym projekcie jedynie zamontował bym inne wylaczniki krańcowe, takie z typowej automatyki na "sprężynkach" ale żeby nie było nie czepiam się to tylko moja sugestia:)

I don't even work with metal... ...but I found THIS build amazing to watch. It's both interesting and educational. Well done! A+

I mounted an angle grinder to a linear rail setup. This would be an ideal way of motorizing it. It can make some very straight cuts as is but one has to be very careful with hand pressure when moving the grinder. Generally apply the pressure to the linear bearing. Cool MIP

That is such a great idea and it works really well thanks for sharing!

My hat is off to you, sir. That is one incredible build!

So many ideas are bursting in my head. Thank you.

I've got a 6 foot 1/2" Acme thread shaft I've been saving for "Something ?". I've found the "Something" ! I've even got a 12v inverter and a wiper motor. I've also got some nice 1/2" stainless angle for slides. This was great, Thanks !!!

Fantastic work, dude! Really well done! 😃 A tip about heat shrink: you can force it open a bit with pliers before putting it in place for heating it. This way it expands a bit. I use to do it a lot for XT60s in my rc aircrafts. 😊 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Молодец, руки ростут из нужного места 😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Wow, sir, you are a true genius, really enjoy watching you work. Your skill is extranordinary!

Very clever. It definitely frees up your hands and saves your back. The electromagnet really makes it easy to position and lock without clamps. It's almost like a track saw for steel but even easier to use

Fantástico, como sempre. Acredito que você seja um dos mais criativos e inovadores em sua área. Gosto muito de seus vídeos.

Nice build. You just need to write down on the machine the offset distance from the edge of the angle to the plasma cutter, inside and outside measurements, so that you don't forget them and then it will be easier to set up for each cut. Mark from Melbourne Australia

The hole saw falling apart was a great touch

the simple is great - I also like the simplicity of non CNC round tube cutting / welding "machines" - being able to set up simply is priceless, of course if CNC is needed a stepper with control module can be integrated *as could a second axis, rinse and repeat. (or make a 2 axis R+P robot - by adding a rotary axis (like a radial arm drill) at the origin - but still able to just drop the whole machine on the workpiece).

Vraiment belle et astucieuse réalisation, bravo 👏👏

Very nice job! And make a video about the connectings would be very helpfull.

MIP, been watching ur channel for years. Finally saw ur face. It's great to put a face to this creativity. Really appreciate u and what u share. SUCESS 2 u from Phoenix AZ

Very well thought out and built. Great job there.

Nice design! Don't blame the taps! If you started by hand or much slower , you might not break as many 😉

Great work. I had a thought when you were setting up the cut. Would a laser sight line be useful or helpful to see where the cut is lined up on your marks?

Great addition to the workshop mate 👍🇦🇺

Wow! You are so talented, is there NOTHING you can make? Thank you for creating these videos and giving us new ideas! 👍🏻😀

Well made tool ! I'd be surprised if there is one similar to this available commercially-for several hundred dollars. But I don't think it would work any better. It certainly makes a fine cut.

Dodał bym wymienną listwe która będzie wyznaczała krawędź cięcia. Spoko sprzęt. Czekam na pełne CNC 😀

That cut on the 3/8” plate is straight as a whip 👌

Seriously great design and idea. If you had an adjustable limit switch, you could make complex cuts by setting the lengths, cutting, then changing the angle, setting the new length, cutting, etc.

Tip: Never use an impact gun to cut threads. Not crappy taps, crappy execution. I’m old school and always manually tap everything, but at most, use a slow-speed power drill on a medium torque setting, and remember to back it out from time to time to remove the cut material from your tap/hole. Slow and steady wins the race my friend. Otherwise, pretty cool setup you made there from junk laying around the shop. Great resourcefulness! 👍🏻

Don't bet on the tap. I just spent a bunch of time in Poland. I went to about a dozen tool stores. 98% of taps and dies that are for sale there are asian made garbage. Same with most of the hand tools. Don't get me wrong, there are some great Polish made tools available. But nowhere as many as were available in the mid 90's when Poland was gaining industry. I myself had some beautiful taps and micrometers made in Poland. All that's left is one 1" micrometer.

Agreed. Easy to shatter even an expensive tap by hammering on it while it's spinning eccentrically through steel. Though those combo drill/tap/countersink bits are laughably bad. You couldn't design a tap more likely to break, even without power tools. Combined with low speed/low torque, a regular tap held high up in the chuck past the squared end will slip nicely when it binds. Not that I haven't been lazy and sloppy a billion times. We all have a mountain of broken taps on our consciences, I'm sure. Not sure I'd keep it in the edit though.

Yes I’d like to see the how you wired the bridge rectifiers and limit switches. Nice job.

Very nice! My only change would be to have adjustable stops so you can pierce and run the line then stop after x distance based on where the endstop is clamped on. (Keep existing switches, just add additional endstop in series that can be plugged in as needed.

@mellis966

Good idea. A easy add would be to have an adjustable impact switch that a user could slide to the desired position. Or maybe a key pad input of a cut distance but that would take an encoder.

The easy way is a proximity switch fixed with the plasma head facing to working steel plate and he need to put a magnet where he want to stop he could use a red switch but it will not be good as proxy . I think is a nice project

​@@mellis966A keypad could be easy to implement, because knowing the travel speed and the distance it would be only necessary to move the head a certain amount of time!

Amazing, so satisfying to see people build stuff :)

This jig makes very pretty cuts. It may not save time when cutting, but it absolutely saves time when smoothing the edge. Very nice idea. Now make a second rail, perpendicular to the first one, hook your pwm to the output of sinus wave generators and make yourself a circle cutter 😊

I found this video and had to subscribe . Love what you can do !

Very nicely done! Certainly a great asset to any metal fabricator!! Beats a torch any day!

Cool machine. One tiny detail when joining timing belts is you can use a short upside down strip of belt to overlap and cog into the two ends.
