Primeweld Cut60 on everything. Next batch of gooseneck dies, I have some path rules in Sheetcam to finetune corners. But overall more than happy with these. I want a total of 6-8" for projects.
Goal is mainly bending 1/8" - 3/16" steel.

First project that took more than a few seconds, for the people that turn onto my narrow dirt driveway thinking it connects, ignoring the private property signs:
Only one hiccup cutting one letter where the thc was unhappy (the left leg of the N). I ended up manually editing the .tap file to remove all the cuts up to and including that letter, then ran that file to completion.
I haven’t decided how I’ll hang it yet, I’m thinking weld a short section of light chain on each end, then hang off a tree or posts.

Hang it across the driveway will work the best.
I saw a similar sign motorcycling through the mountains of WV a few years ago. It was at the top of a mountain road. GPS units would tell you to turn left to get to the highway on the other side of the mountain. The road to the right was the correct one. The one to the left was shorter because it was pretty much straight down with a few switchbacks. The one to the right was longer as it wound gently down the mountain.
At the bottom of the mountain there was a service station with a crane. They used it every couple of months to go up the long road to go winch an RV off the side of the mountain when it hit a switchback while pointing nearly straight down

Hey 1204CNC, about your CARRVE bike mounts…
I’m intrigued, but can’t figure out how a bike attaches to this mount. Do you have a photo showing the finished set up? Thanks.
Hey Mate, I can get some for you for sure. The tire slips in-between the two large tabs and a buckle strap wraps around the rim and the two slots on the tabs keeping it tight. We’ve been mounting the rear wheel in as the front had too much flex from the steering.
Have been toying with this for a while. Looked at Certiflat and the Arc Weld tables but could no justify cost but then I thought, thats why I have a Crossfire. Same construction as Certiflat (tab and slot). Made to cut on original cfxl 23.5x32) with no indexing but could nest 2 together for bigger table or modify drawings for pro. Height set to fit under my workbench. .010 flat diagonally which is better than I have ever welded on before. Total cost under $200.00.Reaming 250 holes took about an hour including cooling tool. I am posting drawings on fireshare in a while.

I thinkit would be cool to antique patina rust it with peroxide and salt …then polish the USCG circle and the shield in the middle…
Ooooh… I DO like that idea!!
Was also considering that “flame” or “torch” finish…something like that anyways…

Just finished this stand for my HF bandsaw. Loving it. It’s a riff on the design from House of Chop
Full disclosure - Had an issue with cutting the top but made it work and that was all on me. 
I really have to get in the habit of checking ALL my settings!!
