Yeah, the funny thing is, we wanted one for years, finally bought a ThermoDynamics, and after a couple of times never used it again. It has sat that way for about two years. Just recently I started using it, one time to cut out my driveshaft hoops on the T, and last week to do some notching on the base I had to build for my air compressor stand. Thing works great, and I see that I will be using it a lot more in the future, instead of my trusty cutting torch.
Only thing is, these rascals throw some sparks. I've got three burns on the top of my right foot where molten steel went down my sock, and I couldn't get my shoe off fast enough.
Guess you are supposed to wear more than tennis shoes and just shorts when welding and cutting.
I have no idea why we haven't used it more, it makes short work of even the 1/4 inch plate I was cutting. I agree with you Charlie about how good they are, and the cut is much neater than the torch.
