Got my crossfire last week and assembled over a few days as I had time. Easy assembly thanks to all the in-depth videos by Langmuir.
Software was not too hard to pick up, once again, thanks to the detailed videos. Finally starting to get the hang of it after a few cuts and dont need to reference the videos anymore.
I’m running the Crossfire with a TD Cutmaster 39. Only played with 1/8" (11ga) HRPO so far and it is cutting like butter.
I plan to make a few more modifications to the table:
-lower shelf for plasma, drain bucket, and maybe scraps
-separate drain valve
-nozzle shield (old silicone funnel trick)
Here’s a few photos of my initial cuts as well as the laptop stand I came up with. Looking forward to sharing and learning on this forum. Thanks!
Finished up the lower shelf. Sadly didnt have the material to cut something cool on the plasma for it, but had a bunch of 1/4" HDPE scraps to skin it with.
Been playing with the table nearly every day and loving the possibilities this tool opens up. Here’s an example of some basic tabs I needed to make that would have taken so much longer with my normal tools.
Played with the “tabs” feature on Fusion 360 to keep them nested for forming
Formed them then cut the tabs on the vertical bandsaw
Cleaned up the edges on the disc sander and deburred with wire wheel
Final fitment. Trim, adjust, repeat…
I still have a lot of learning to do to figure out all my settings, start/stops, spacing… but this tool is already saving loads of time. Great job @langmuirsystems!
