Anyone From Australia?

Post by theweldman »

Completely newbie here wondering where to get the best CNC Plasma Cutter in Australia. I have been reading about SurefireCNC as I heard they are good but want to know if someone locally can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Very good, and basic explanation of what is needed to control and drive a cnc machine.
He didn't overcomplicate things with too long of explanations of how each part work in relation to all of the other parts.
He is a good teacher
Thanks for the share!

Rusty is from down unda and a member of P Spider both :Yay His video series is very well done and informative. Like many others here I'm a build it myself kinda guy, it makes troubleshooting go a lot quicker down the road when problems arise..

His Plasmaspider moniker is "Rusty Gates". Here is a link to his post where he talks about his diy build.

I agree that he has produced a "no-nonsense" set of videos describing his build and how it works.

The absolute best plasma machine manufacturer would be advanced robotic technology in Brisbane, they are big budget stuff so be prepared. I wouldn’t think importing a laser from china could be far off either

I do believe hare and forbes sell swift cut too
