Amazon. 600kg lifting magnet. We’re planning to get another one and fab up an I-beam spreader to minimize plate bending. Will let us lift 1/4" plate (sags too much with just one magnet).

Articulating Monitor
Just a Little Upgrade to the Computer Station. Turned out Pretty Well. Tore apart the Articulating mount, machined it for a post and Played a Litte on the ol’Smithy for the Mounts and computer swivel. Added a GFI outlet and routed to my cable chase at the back of the table, so no more tripping on cords.

How is the XR working out since I last contacted you? I’m getting ready to purchase the XR so thought I would ask you one last time. You have any more issues in past 30 days?
Actually the XR has been running dang near flawless for a while. No freezes. The other day I did have the Y axis loosen up and sent the machine off but I tightened back up, homed it and its good. I would def suggest picking one up. The only thing I struggle with is taper really. Not sure if their Z axis is the issue or what but even on the PRO Iv had what I would say more than desirable taper. But the holes Im cutting I would say are pretty good even compared to the PRO. So thats it, nothing much else to grip about. Its been holding up.

not entirely sure but I guess it woulda been noise from plasma bc when I added a second choke to my cable I haven’t had any freezes. I do keep the plasma a good bit of distance between computer and control box, so I was kind of surprised it was doing that.
That is a sweet double magnet setup. I dont think I will be cutting large enough sheets to need such a set up, but then again…I may be hitting you up for more info!
directioneast, I’m glad you seem to have your machine sorted.
appreciate the detailed good and bad…
