OK, I'm looking to buy a "thumb" for my back hoe. While it is expensive
to buy, I realized that this is an easy piece to make, failing one
thing... I don't have a good way to cut heavy steel. (1/4" plate or
better)
I don't know much about plasma cutters, but I'm willing to learn. With
the cost of this thumb, I could justify getting a good cutter and making
my own.
What do you need for a cutter besides the torch? Are they hard to learn?
Any special skills I need?
I'm just gathering information at this time. So I'm looking for any and
all suggestions on buying one and what I need to do to learn it.
Thanks.
