Great videos -- thanks! You've convinced me to buy an acrdroid. Question: How did you get the blue-ing finish on your cat (4:30 in the video)? I think that multi-hued finish looks awesome.

Propane torch, works well on thin stuff.. If you're diligent you can get a consistent range of colour.

I'd love to see how you create some of these great designs. Are they free draw on Fusion 360?

I pull dxf files off Etsy or one of the many free sites you can find on google. Then modify as needed in Fusion.

I noticed that you were using a rod while doing the cutting. You seemed to touch the holder of the plasma torch lightly just before the torch lit up. What was this for? Not activating the torch, yes/no? I watched another vid by someone else and he had connected a couple of wires from the plug of the torch and connected it to some connections outside of the ArcDroid to activate the torch. Were you grounding the torch to activate it? The other one of your vid's called the Canadian flag you appeared to use the rod to hold down the sheet metal by the torch so it would be sure to be flat at that point. Did I answer my own question?

I had one of the table slats out, thin sheet metal would deflect when the torch probes. So I was stopping it as it hit the top of the material. You are correct on the other videos, I was holding the material down.
