Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦. I have been running plasma cutters often throughout my career in steel fab and as I'm sure you discovered it is best to replace both the electrode and the nozzle at the same time. The ceramic swirl ring and the larger ceramic cap, replace if cracked or broken. It also helps your consumables last longer if you have some sort of a dryer or a way to remove moisture or any fluids from the compressed air before it reaches the torch. Thanks for your videos on the setup of the arcdroid cnc. I have been looking for something just like this for my home shop.
Awesome feedback. Yeah I have a unimig toilet roll style air dryer inline to the plasma cutter. Yeah I’ll replace both at the same time for sure every time in the future. Hey if you’re looking to get an arcdroid. I have a discount code that will save you 10% on buying one. I wish I saved 10% but I’m over in australia. This is the link below and use code “fab10” at the checkout for the discount buddy. Thanks again arcdroidcnc.com?aff=26 Code - fab10
Great video
Great video
Looks awesome. Great job mate 👍🇦🇺
Nice work
That’s an awesome machine. Great idea to mount it to your table well done!
Nice job
You are so cool for this broski
Thanks bro! I appreciate it!. 🙏😎
Nice quick and easy design.
Sure is. More time spent designing it in fusion 360 than actually making it haha. It worked a treat and looks awesome with the flames shining through the fab life sides
Been there, lesson learned. Try changing the cut order to minimize thermal distortion. Dry runs help when the metal is warped so you can level it and prevent driving the tip into the material on those longer cuts.
Awesome feedback! Yeah I definitely need to program the cut order next time. 🙏. Thanks for subscribing 😎
Kinda waste of high carbon steel, unless you heat treat it red...
Thanks for that.. I guess that’s your opinion. For me.. it was a saw blade that was going to be thrown away and I used it to get some more practice with my new arcdroid cnc 👍
Great job mate. Doing real well. I’ve recently picked up a cnc plasma cutter myself and had hell setting it up. Same thing happened on mine with a burnt through electrode. Been having some good success now. Best of luck mate
Yeah man I reckon so many of us have been through the same struggles when getting into cnc plasma cutting. Consistent clearance, amps and travel speed are so critical. She’s a sensitive beast!. Change the metal thickness and you have to change the settings again… the last parts of the fire pit were really easy because I had it dialled in with new consumables … made a massive difference!
Impressive amount of subscribers on your channel buddy!
@@Fab-Life444 thank you! Still trying to work at it. I had a look over your channel. You’re doing really well! You’ll be right up there in no time!
You reckon? I’m really hoping so! I’m definitely putting in the work haha
Beautiful work thanks for sharing. Don't worry when I first got a plasma in 2008 I buggered up my torch on my plasma because I forgot to open the air on my compressor. I know better now because there's a lot more videos about setup and how to use them now compared to then. Keep up the great work.
Awesome feedback 🙏. I absolutely love the amount of information that is at our fingertips these days!. No matter what the outcome is, it’s always great to share the journey. I could have edited out all the issues I had but… all that does is create a false reality haha. The reality is that it’s bloody hard and so many curve balls get thrown your way. 😂
I've been thinking that if you mounted the arcdroid on an x or y axis you could arbitrarily increase the size of your work table lengthwise and cut much larger pieces.
Yeah I plan on getting the x2 large cut system from arcdroid…. Although I never really planned on cutting large pieces. It’s more for brackets etc 🙏

Awesome build! Love the beats aswel. 🇦🇺
Yeah I love them aswel. I use uppbeat.io It’s a great website for licence free music. 🎵
That looks sick! Definitely getting cold here in Australia 🇦🇺
Haha yeah it sure is. Windy as hell at the moment. It took almost 5 minutes to start the fire in this video 😂
Great video, keep up the good work
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. I’m stoked at how it came out! 😎🙏
Thoroughly enjoyed the video! Such creativity! Looking forward to your next project!
Awesome feedback! Very much appreciated. 🙏
For the algorithm 👍👌🇦🇺
Gotta feed that algorithm buddy! It’s a needy, sensitive beast!. Hahaha
noice!
What type/ brand is the mount arm for the screen?
EBay purchased. www.ebay.com.au/itm/176348163380?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=I2KF7Gn0QF6&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=WQnh1HbURvS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
@@Fab-Life444 awesome, thanks!
where the tube bender from? nice upgrade!
The bender is from speedwerx 🙏😎
Awesome video. I wonder why you didn't use the water catchment system under your table like most cnc plasma cutters do?
There is definitely water under my table brother. That’s why I needed to go fishing with the magnet haha 😎
Absolutely enjoyed the video! Such creative content! 👍
Thanks so much! 🙏

Was that an inside/outside of the line situation?👍👌🇦🇺
Yeah so the issue on this one was the order of cuts. External should always be last because when the tip touches to sense material height, it will tip the material if it’s no longer attached to the sheet of metal. Also, my other mistake was that I didn’t realise that in fusion 360, you need to make passages to connect to internals of lettering. Like the middle of the A and B etc… otherwise it won’t even look like what you want to cut… haha another issue for me at the start was learning the lead in and lead out points… and what side of the line is to be cut that relates to what part of the material you wish to remain. Like if the internals of the letters are to be cut out, they are the removed part and lead in and out needs to be on the material that will be thrown away… it’s allot man but it’s so worth it!!! 🙏
@@Fab-Life444 thanks for the details 👍👌🇦🇺
Not a problem man. Happy to share my knowledge. That’s what it’s all about!. Let me know if you need any more advice… I’ll always respond to the comments 🙏
Mate, I've got the same machine. And the 180 AC/DC. I'm hoping the cut 30 mk2 will do arcdroid, it has the cnc port, just need the extra cable. I thought I seen one in you vid👍👌🇦🇺
Yeah so when you buy the machine… hopefully with my link and code 😉… also buy the universal cnc communication cable. My razor cut 45 had an adapter plug that came with it… it then plugged into the cable that I bought with the arcdroid. It really only uses two of the pins for the torch on and off… you’ll see me connect the wires to the cnc in my other video. The cable is called “C4301 CNC PLASMA CABLE - UNIVERSAL”. Hope this helps you out man 🙏😎

Nice mate just bought one myself and need to set it up get video 👍 what band saw is that ?
Awesome. You’ll love the arcdroid. Mark my words.. you will need to spend allot of time learning it!. Haha I think I’ve spent 10 hours so far in the first week of having it. The saw I have is from tool warehouse. Metaltech MTBS8S 1100w Heavy Duty Industrial Swivel Head Metal Cutting Band Saw.
I thoroughly enjoyed the video! The tub rack is an excellent design too 👌
Glad you like it!
You know your Calibration triangle is set up wrong ? Right?
I sure do. I realised this after making the video and the coordinations when moving the arm weren’t matching what I was seeing on the screen. This is a result of breezing over the video of how to set this up… if I had on read the instructions on the website, I would have seen that the two half moons on the front edge of the base plate were for the triangle. 🫡
… is this who I think it is? 😉…. I feel a little star-struck. I’m now an ambassador for your amazing product!.
Quick tip.... mount the torch on the plastic part of the torch not the ceramic cup...much better probe results and you can change consumable without removing the torch form the holder... There is a "sort" button to sort from inside to outside to avoid the cut the outside first problem
Thanks for the info. Yeah the sort function would sort all the cuts. Some of the cuts needed to be the opposite of the others. I ended up setting up the cut paths in fusion 360 and got it to work properly that way 🙏
I’m actually super keen to change the torch clamped position like you said. Thanks again for the info. I’ll change it tonight
I tried what you said. It’s definitely better on the ceramic cup on my machine. The plastic section on mine is slightly tapered and it’s impossible to ensure the torch is square to the material. Thanks for the info but I keep it where it is until I upgrade to a proper torch.
This is going on my letter to Santa this year.
Haha yeah it’s worth putting on your list for sure 👍… remember also to set aside many many hours of practice… this thing is a massive learning curve. 😎

Very cool gadget. Looking forward to more. Subbed here!
Thanks heaps for subscribing!. I appreciate it allot. More videos to come of me getting some practice on this gadget! 🙏
Love those arcdroids👍👌🇦🇺
I completely agree!. I’ve had my eye on one for so so long!. First saw it on grind hard plumbing co 😎
@@Fab-Life444 there is a slide rack available too. Comes with a linear encoder so the droid knows where it is👍👌🇦🇺
@@adhawk5632 I purchased it but it was on back order so I’ve left it for a future purchase. Most of the things I’ll cut will be small anyways 😀
this is so cool!! no need for a whole table any more
Exactly… so portable and compact. Weighs only 16kg. The trace function is so cool aswel
Very cool setup. Keep on fabricating brother.
Thanks man!. More videos coming soon of some projects I’ve got going on
nice build, looks factory. that is an awesome machine, so fast!
Thanks 🙏. Once it was painted, I stood back and thought it looked factory 😎
fuck yeah cnc!
Stepping up my metal cutting game with this bad boy for sure!
15:36 - Hope you will adjust the steering as one wheel is turned like 90* while the other is almost straight lol
Yeah I will definitely do that. It’s really roughed in at the moment and after watching back the video clip… I did see it turn harder than the other 🤣
put a helmet, youtube or not, people have died because of not having helmet, take care of yourself
I don’t understand your comment.. do you mean a helmet?.. if so, yes I totally agree I should have worn a helmet!.. my intent was to just get a quick video for the end of that episode and it ended very badly. 🙏
@@Fab-Life444 yes a helmet , sorry i 'm french boy ;) glad you didn't get anything more.
@@Fab-Life444 yes a Helmet , sorry i'm a french Boy , glad you didn't get anything more.
Haha I’ve never heard of it called that before. I thought you’d seen me using the angle grinder or something… 😂
@@Fab-Life444 Ah Ah Sorry, for my bad American and English writing ^^ it's also the fault of google translate. I laugh about it too :D can't wait for the rest of your adventures, I'm going to watch
Those wheels look a lot better suited for that size of car.
Yeah the first set were way too wide. Made it look like a monster truck!. I did like the first look but it wasn’t practical at all. 🤣
