Would be great to see some pics of you checking it.
How long was your straight edge?
Curious to see how you did
It
Good time to review this thread before you go any further:
Pimp My Pro- Mods and Addons - CrossFire ® PRO - Langmuir Systems Forum
thanks for the tip. I read every thread on the forums. Especially that one, water table topics and dry air topics.
the stack is ready… at least three projects worth there. Added 726lbs to the pile for the CFP base project and others. I had 450lbs of remnants… enough to build a DIY finger press brake.
would love to be able to store metal outside…but not here…Ottawa Canada…snow…rain…high humidity in the summer…
So, what tools and drains did you use? Don’t really want to spend $400, but I would love to redo the drains in my table.
@ShaneP Welcome to the forum!
There are a couple of dimple dies that others have made and are circulating around. Get on the list. I did it for my table and it works great!
Here is a thread featuring the dimple die that @nortonscustoms has provided. As of 9 days ago the dies were still circulating the forum.
There are also some dimple dies that use the original drain… they dimple it down to make it flush. I 3d printed some and used them before I did the bar sink mod… I definitely recommend the bar sink mod.
Some have had good results just adding the bar sink drain without using a dimple die.
Bar sink drain dimple die - CrossFire ® PRO / Assembly - Langmuir Systems Forum
like pony said I used 1” bar sink drains from amazon. I got an expensive die set because i have other needs for them, conveniently justified for the plasma table.
You could 3D print a full infill die and be successful for a couple smash sections.
I was able to get mine fully below the floor of the pan, sealed with the waterproof locktite goo.
For curious members, the height increase will be as follows:
4" of tube frame
10 1/2" shelf spaces (3 shelves plus the top, so four really; ) >>> bottom |—|—|—| top
but what about the casters? Well, I learned here about side mounting. So they will only add ¾" to the height even though the casters are 4" tall
MINUS the minimum height of the CFP feet.
Total: ~14"
what are you building now?
a base for the CFP, @rjpowell9
Made more progress on the base today. If you want to see more pics, you’ll have to join my “All Things Maker” group on the book of face, please. I despise the book of face, but, barring a better platform…its all we got.
The ultimate CFP base fabrication is complete!
Look at this post on Facebook Redirecting...
Post more pics on here for those of us who aren’t on Facebook.
Yeah, I’m not allowed on Facebook
