    New from Maryland

     



    I'm new to the forum, but not to hot rods. In my 83 years I've owned everything from T-buckets to an SOHC 427 Ford Galaxy. My main interest back in the day was engine swaps. I stuck small block chevys in everything I could lay my hands on, including an Austin Healy Sprite and a VW bug. I mostly do arm chair racing at this point, although I still drive a C7 Z06 'Vette occasionally.

    I was the founder and previous owner of Torchmate CNC Cutting Systems, and I still stay busy cutting out various shapes on my little 2' x 2' CNC plasma table. Hopefully I can bring some information on that subject to the table here.

    Not by me.
    Please accept my apologies.

    But he did post another thread with pics of his 3D plasma table (that I am still drooling over) and um... something else! LOL
    So I think there's hope for you yet JB!

    Welcome Bill, always nice to have a fresh face here.

    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    Curious, was your plasma table a "kit" or a scratch build?
