Welcome Joe! "Chinesium plasma" LOL that doesn't sound great... How far have you gotten with it so far? Does it move around? Does it cut a part?

Joe - welcome to the forum! What drawing software are you using to create the files for the parts you are cutting?joenusz wrote: Thu Mar 27, 2025 10:04 am Hello all! My name is Joe Nusz and I live near Fort Worth, TX. I am a new purchaser of a used Chinesium plasma CNC and I'm here for help lol. I hope after I get some experience I can be useful to the community. Thanks!

Re: Intro
You are correct, Chinesium isn't that great. I'm actually going to use this thing to make a little money and resell it and upgrade. If anyone has any suggestions for an entry level unit I'm all ears. I will be keeping the Huawei Hi Cut 80 plasma cutter and selling the table.
Right now I'm using the parts library on the Chinese controller (SF-2100CT). The software that came with the table won't even run on Windows 11. I'd love to hear suggestions on software as well. If I can't use it with this controller that's ok, I will eventually use it when I upgrade. The parts library will get me rolling with my deck railing business.

Re: Intro
I hear very good things about the Langmuir plasma tables. Some of then you could consider "entry level". If your controller can import vector files (dxf, svg, etc.) then Inkscape is a good program (free) for drawing artistic pieces. Maybe Fusion 360 for the more mechanical parts.
