Love This Sculpture

[@JustVoss]

Thanks me too!

[@jamesherndon3504]

I want to try this only with plug brazing the holes with silicon bronze and grinding flat. Nice video man!

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Wow that's crazy awesome. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep welding. Keep making. God bless.

[@Sneakyjoe69]

Hey who makes that blue and gold looking back cap you had on there

[@ronmiller682]

That is sweet thank you for sharing

Justin, Your Powermax 85 is capable of using nitrogen as a cutting gas. Using nitrogen will greatly reduce/eliminate the nasty edge quality and dross that compressed air leaves behind. Cut speed and arc voltage are almost identical to what is provided in the Hypertherm manual. Nitrogen also does and excellent job on aluminum.

[@carpediemarts705]

interesting timing, 14 minutes after I ask how to keep the plasma from butchering the stainless. Tell me more about the nitrogen? I've done whippets before and don't think I could tig stainless very well after that...

[@weld-itfab1633]

@@carpediemarts705 You need to be certain that your plasma power supply can run nitrogen first. What you will need is a nitrogen regulator for the cylinder, six pack or dewer and adelivery hose from the regulator to the machine. Settings are almost identical (at least on a Hypertherm) as they are for compressed air.

@@weld-itfab1633 "six pack or fewer"? I don't drink and plasma.

[@weld-itfab1633]

@@carpediemarts705 Six pack of nitrogen cylinders or a large nitrogen dewer which is liquid and the gas bleeds off and that is what is used in the cutting process

[@murdersaab8999]

Looks great, I feel you might want to figure out how to get arc shots viewers can see

[@alanspeert8351]

Great vedio when will the DXF files be available or are you going to offer drawing with dimensions

[@JustVoss]

Will offer both together as a package soon.

[@bearsstuff]

Post something on KZbin. Definitely interested in a kit.

[@gamehog33]

Where is the DXF? Thanks, great video!

[@Mustachedmedic]

great video! any idea when defiant welding gloves will be back in stock?

[@JustVoss]

Thanks! They are still all in stock on the website! I’ll add links to the description.

[@Mustachedmedic]

@@JustVoss awesome! i only checked amazon lol

[@Mustachedmedic]

no charge shipping from your website! screw amazon lmao

This was surprisingly inspiring justin! Good to see you again bud, keep it up!.....d*mn! You didn't have a CNC table that long ago, NICE upgrade. Been wondering if that investment($4000-$6000) would be worth it for me tho. Prolly take several years to see a R.O.I. on it tho.

[@JustVoss]

I think if you do a lot of work or manufacture something that could benefit from the time savings of having one you’d recoup it pretty fast. I think that would be better than only selling cutting services.

[@jonbozzy9600]

Did you let it cool down before welding each side?

[@JustVoss]

Yeah I did opposite sides and then let it cool. Not all the way to room temperature though.

[@garycotz563]

110A was what you settled with? Yeah, sounds right, cool! Stainless way cooler welds than steel.

[@carpediemarts705]

November last year, I took my collection of stainless to a friend's and cut concentric hexagons out of it. The plasmacutter did horrible things to the stainless. Foamy, sharp, black, and horribly hard. It took me 60 hours over a couple months to clean the dross and slag from the 6 inside walls, 6 outside walls, top, bottom, and the 24 slaggy edges from 160 hexagons. It was so horrible that 90% of that now clean stainless is still sitting in the 5 gallon bucket in the garage. I have another 160 pieces of stainless that if I cut into the same sizes of hexagons, would be ... 160x5 800 hexagons to sand, makes me just want to quit and do something completely different. What can I do to make the plasmacutter not absolutely butcher the stainless? Additional note, if anyone wants to build a buckyball out of 20 same sized hexagons, be sure to first build a jig to place the edges together at 138 degrees with a gap in the middle of the jig for the weld. Be especially particular that any 2 pieces come together at the same angle while looking at the faces, and geez, how to say, the edges come together evenly and not at the slightest of lap weld. Or thou shalt cuss.
