**After Running the Titanium Plasma 45 for 3 years it's held up great! But I feel the Hynade CUT 60 CNC Plasma with blow back pilot arc start offers much better value and is PLUG and PLAY CNC ready***

Hynade CNC Blow Back Digital Air Plasma Cutter, Non-HF Pilot Arc Non-Touch Plasma Cutting Machine, THC Torch Height Control Enabled (CUT60DN) amzn.to/3DEzR2m
Love your videos very helpful ! Can you make chassis for r.c. cars with that set up ?
Mike, thanks for the video and the recommendation on the Hynade 60. With the Hynade 60 did you do anything with the Arc Voltage Output?
No .... that really cool ! I finally got a plasma cutter , my wife bought it for my birthday , and I can’t wait to start making brackets and tail light holders and such ! I’m 62 and never used one before but have been fabricating choppers and go-carts and yard art other things with a motor . I know It’s opening a whole new world for me , and my creations will look that much better !
How cool. I have a Torchmate 2X2 and I have made thousands of things. The best piece of advice that I can give anyone with a plasma cutter is to buy the small Harbor Freight air dryer. It cost about $500 but worth it. The other thing is to put a plastic bag around the handle trigger since you have a water table. That plastic bag will save you hundreds of dollars. I like your machine but I was a little concerned about the gantry arm only having one support instead of two. If you live near Racine, WI I would love to share programs with you. It looks like you know a lot and well on your way. I make most of my art program just by tracing in CAD.
Mike, that Titanium 45 plasma looks VERY well put together on the inside.
That’s what I was thinking too, they definitely have a nice fan tunnel to keep all the heat sinks cooled off. Thanks for checking out my video! Ps I like those SunF tires on the back of the quad truck so far, they are thick and heavy tires but it’s good on a utility vehicle like that. I’m sure they will out live the quad truck Haha!
Great video Mike. Your coverage was excellent. I can’t wait till I get time to see your other reviews.
I subscribed after you mentioned family.
Found your channel couple weeks ago - I appreciate your hard work and information on all the equipment you try out. Honest. Thanks & keep it goin
Incredible what can be done in a home shop with the aid of one of these machines! The possibilities are truly endless. Thanks for doing these awesome videos, Mike. Always superbly done.
Awesome Mike!!! Your future projects will all be planned out differently now... Congrats on the affiliate deal!!! Can't wait to see the quad makeover!!!
Thanks Mike!
I think this might be a revolution around the corner. 3k between a CNC table and a torch and you pretty much can assemble any kind of complex geometry. And durable ones, not like a 3D printer. Awesome for DIY and fabrication.
I think you are right, it’s a great set up especially for it’s ability at that cost!
It unlocks so many doors when it comes to fabrication and building projects.
Thanks for commenting I really appreciate reading your comment. Take care 🙂
This is such a good video. Great work mate, I’ll appreciate it even more once I get myself up and running. Cheers!
Man you have inspired me to do so much keep making these videos.
Thanks Mike, you just answered pretty much all of my questions amade my mind up about purchasing the titanium/langmuier setup! Your videos are appreciated!
Right on I’m happy to hear my videos have been useful to you 🙂 I think you will definitely like the tools, there’s a bit of a learning curve but it gets much easier the more you use it.
You are the man. Thanks for passing down knowledge for generations whose parents would not teach them anything.
Thanks I really appreciate your comment Michael 🙂
Outstanding video Mike. Being able to duplicate a part and making slots has always been tricky; even for a experienced fabricator. 👍
Glad to see you with a new toy, I am sure there will be some innovative talent displays arriving in our CZcams notifications soon. Great job explaining the process, looking forward to see what you will be creating.
Thanks Bob! Yes It’s definitely a really great tool to have in the shop. I have a lot of fun projects I’m planning soon! Take care and happy Thanksgiving 🙂
I just bought a table with your promo code. It still works in 2023. Thanks for the videos. I have been wanting to do this for a few years and finally i just bit the bullet on this one. I still need a plasma cutter, but that should be no problem.
Helpful video I’ll order one soon hopefully and I’ll be using your code man 👏🏼 keep up the good work
Seems amazing for the price wow who wouldn’t have thought these thing would be affordable
Great video as usual. I was just thinking that I haven’t seen any videos from you lately and was happy to find this one.
I’m not sure that I’m ready to take the plunge for the table but your video was informative and well made, as usual.
Thanks
Thanks for checking out my new video! I think CZcams has not been sending out notifications to some subscribers? I try and post a new video every other Friday.
Yeah it’s definitely a bit of a investment to buy one of these tables but I’m really excited to be able to start a bigger project after the new year and this table is going to save me a lot of time! Thanks again Steve
i like your CNC plasma table..great addition to the shop..thank you Mike for share..
Thanks for checking out my videos Fred! I do really appreciate it 👍
This thing is awesome. Definitely going to get one or something similar when I can.
man i cant wait to get one of these for when i get my custom metal fab business going
Thanks for the code! Saved $100 bucks on my order.
now i can't wait for it to arrive and earn me some $$$
Thanks for sharing and always keep building👍
Really informative and helpful as usual Mike - Thanks!
Thanks for doing videos on this thing. I’ve been pretty curious how well they work.
Thanks for checking out my video Matthew! I have learned a lot already on this, and I feel like I’m just scratching the surface of it’s capability. Ps I really liked seeing the skateboards your wife had built, I work for a snowboard manufacturer and we also make skateboards, so I liked seeing how you guys go about building them, your form block looks a lot like the ones we use, the biggest difference is we press them with heavy duty air bags and heat, the vacuum bag looked like it works great! Take care 🙂
@@Mikefestiva You get to play with all the fun toys :D
Posted this on your other plasma video:
If you haven't purchased Mach 3 you might want to hold off, as Langmuir is releasing their own controller software called FireControl when they start shipping the Pro tables. It's free and will work with the older tables. The quote below is from here (@t) you may not have access to the post if you are not in on the Pro preorder.
FireControl
The main benefit of the CrossFire Gen 2 System is FREE, cross-platform, plasma-specific control software with a modern user interface and ongoing support and development. The Gen 2 control software, FireControl, is designed and developed by Langmuir Systems specifically for CNC plasma cutting on the CrossFire and CrossFire PRO.
Hey Mike.
So i took the plunge, ordered me one and used the promo code you provided. I am excited to say the least.
Thank you sir.
Right on! I think you will really enjoy having a CNC table 👍
Wow. Thanks for sharing! I've been dying to get one of these.
Thanks for checking out my video, it’s been really nice having this new edition to my shop. Take care
Good looking table. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Mike
Thanks Joe 🙂 I hope you and your family had a great thanksgiving too!
Great video Mike. I just bought the titanium 45 few days ago and it suppose to be delivered tomorrow. Can't wait to play with it and start to save up for a plasma table
Right on! I think you will definitely like having it in your shop!
oh thx for sharing!!!! I was dreaming for my own plasma CNC for hobbiest
that’s pretty cool! thanks for sharing and Happy Thanksgiving
Thanks Zeke! I hope you had a great thanksgiving too!
Just came across your channel today and man you have such a badass workshop setup! I'm currently a mechanical engineering student living down in SoCal, and my dream after graduating is to move up to the PNW to work and to eventually have a setup at home similar to yours. Having the ability to fab up custom stuff on the weekend is my dream! I'll definitely be watching your future videos and taking your advice on saving some money on tools like these when I have the opportunity to get myself some. Keep it up with the great content man!
Thanks for checking out my channel 👍 I definitely recommend checking out the Northwest, I’m up in Washington and there’s a lot to do especially if you like doing things outdoors. If I had the opportunity I probably would have followed the path you are taking in school, keep up the good work and I look forward to hearing more from you Thomas 👍
Great channel. I recently bought the Vulcan mig215 and Vulcan protig after watching your channel. I use a wide variety of Miller welders at work and I think the Vulcans hold up well against some very expensive welders for home shop use. Enjoying the plasma cutter videos even though I’ve never used one lol. Great watching guys build real stuff.
Right on! Thanks for checking out my channel 🙂 Yes I think the Vulcan welders are really good machines especially for the price. I ran my Omnipro next to my friends Millermatic 200 and I have to say the Omnipro had a lot more features and welded just as good for half the price. Good to hear you feel the same about them as I do. Take care
ive been looking at this table for a while, this is the best video ive seen on it. im sure not no computer guy, being a equipment mechanic my extent of them is opening and closing work orders and ordering parts. this will be interesting to learn. I like how you talk to people not down to them. great presentation
Thanks Joel I really appreciate your comment 🙂
This little table has really changed the way I build stuff, I had never used CAD programs before and I was a bit worried I wouldn’t know how to run it, but within a month of buying this table I was building my articulating dump truck and this machine really has cut almost every part for it. Have you seen any of those videos on the dump truck? It’s been a fun project. Thanks for commenting 👍
@@Mikefestiva yes. that dump truck is beyond awesome, very impressive. I have never used anything like the cad programs either but I will get one of those tables for sure.
I bet it's not to long before you add the Z axis. Nice video, you can make some money cutting parts for others also.
Excellent video. Looks like a young man's game to me. I am olderthandirt and not very tech savvy but this really looks like the cat's meow. Good luck with your projects.
Thanks for your videos, I had no idea metal fabrication was this approachable.
Thanks for checking out my videos 🙂
AWESOME system. Thank you.
Wow Mike, you just keep getting better and better. I only wish I was younger, a person could make a lot of side money making one off parts for car builds, and motorcycles. Always happy we I see a new posting from you.
Thanks Chuck I really appreciate your comment 🙂
Just got the last part of my cross fire hope to put it together tomorrow.
Nice! I think you will really like having that in your shop 👍
Damn it Mike... Now I need one of these!!!
I often have water splashing over the side of the water tray. So i ended up mounting the electronics enclosure up higher on the shelf. you can extend the stepper motor cables with ordinary computer serial cables.
Nice,setup looks great quality! small plasma table is on my list for when i retire.
Thanks for checking out my video Jeffrey! Yes I definitely recommend getting one. This table and torch is definitely getting me to think about projects differently, it make projects a lot easier to be able to cut exactly duplicates when building multiple parts. I think you will definitely like owning a CNC table! Take care
@@Mikefestiva always check your videos Mike! Full of good info!
Add strategic tabs to avoid tip ups in small parts
G’ Day Mike
Great video , a plasma CNC is on my want list .Just subbed look forward to more videos.
Thank you For sharing I have really been contemplating on buying one of these and I think I’m going to now after watching your video
Thanks for checking out my video! I really like the Crossfire, it’s definitely a handy tool to have in your shop. It’s definitely making me rethink how I want to build projects. If you have never used Fusion 360 before it will first feel a bit overwhelmed but after a week or two of drawing in the program you will definitely get the hang of it. My next video I post I will put some links in the description to some really helpful Fusion 360 videos I have found on CZcams that really helped me learn the program. Take care Nicholas 🙂
Iam so happy for you Mike! Great things come in mind to produce xD
Thanks! I appreciate your nice comment 🙂 I’m going to be starting on a big project in January and this CNC is going to be a big help!!!
Nice video of some fun tools. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Kevin for checking out my video!
Great video mike happy Thanksgiving as well as black friday
Thanks Antonio 🙂 I hope you had a great thanksgiving as well!
Love the KTM in the background !
Right on! I just got back home from a nice camping trip, I took the KTM to eastern Washington for some awesome trail riding! I should have a video up in a few weeks. Take care
Very nice Mike! Thanks for the video!
Thanks Jossi!
I took the plunge and ordered one. I got the water table and extension as well. I got the Prime Weld Cut 60 to go with it. I was going to go with the Titanium but the Prime weld was a $100 less and came with a 3 year warranty. Can't wait to try it all out. Thanks again for your videos and help.
Nice, I think you are going to really enjoy it!
I was just running my table last night, I was cutting some 1/4” and 1/8” parts for some small shackle hangers for my quad truck project. It’s a little overwhelming at first to learn the Fusion 360 program but I found a few videos on CZcams that I will post, these videos are really what got me past the learning curve, you easily can just follow along and build the parts that the guy is building in the video, it really got me past the struggle of learning something new.
Do you have project videos posted on your CZcams page?
@@Mikefestiva Really looking forward to seeing your video on cutting the parts for your quad, and seeing those tutorial videos you are talking about. I just got my Prime Weld last night. I forgot to mention the other factor in selecting that was it has a CNC plug in so I dont have to splice wires. I have about 35 project videos on my CZcams channel. They are mostly blacksmithing related. I would be honored if you checked it out. The I'm waiting on the Crossfire to arrive.
Refiner's Forge I think going with the prime weld will be good! I think HF is asking to much for the Titanium 45, at the price they are asking there’s a lot of plasma torches on the market. I definitely will check out your channel 🙂 l will try and post the links to those tutorial videos I found this evening, you definitely will find them helpful. Take care and have a great day 👍
Another awesome video Mike
Thanks 🙂
Looks like you'll get a lot of use on that Mike!
Thanks for checking out my video!
Yes I keep thinking of cool things to build on this table, it definitely opens the doors to more complex parts. Take care 🙂
Langmuir has their newer and bigger table on sale. Sooner you can order it, cheaper it is. A tiny tab to knockout is not an issue. I'd definitely get the water table, does A LOT to reduce warpage if not eliminate it. For some of my art projects, this would save an insane amount of time once orogrammed and make duplicate parts perfectly. Can't wait to get one.
Thanks for checking out my video! The tabs on that were from me not setting up the IN and OUT cuts and CUT speed properly, I have gotten a lot better on setting up the Inches per minute and have completely eliminated that problem, but the Fusion 360 program is pretty detailed in tool paths, if you have parts that you’re concerned about tipping up when cutting them out it’s easy to add small tabs that you can break off after the part is cut. I think you will benefit by owning a CNC table especially your art projects! I need to look into there newer table and checkout some of its features. Take care 🙂
Thanks for the Discount Code on the CNC, just ordered it. Cant wait.
Right on Mike 👍 You will really enjoy owning a CNC plasma table!
You will be able to make some cool stuff, plus I’m sure if you want side work you will stay busy cutting parts for others.
Dude, this is awesome..!! The red welder company wants like $20k plus..!!
As a cnc machinist. I'm very impressed.
I sold this CNC table about a year ago and upgraded to the crossfire PRO table, it’s bigger and has more options. Both tables are excellent and are priced right 🙂👍
Thanks for checking out my video, I have other videos on my channel covering the PRO model, and a lot of videos building stuff using my CNC. I actually built an articulating dump truck and now I’m in the process of building a 6x6 mini pinzgauer truck!
You have skill, your son is going to be learning plenty from you, I built a 3d printer with my son using arduino boards and stepper motors. Cnc motion is neat stuff.
I was one of the early buyer for the table when it first came out. I've been very pleased with it so far. Fusion360 is great but lets not kid ourselves here, if you've never ever used CAD in your life, it's going to be a steep learning curve, but I can guarantee you that it isn't as steep as say Catia V5 for instance (I have thousand hours of that as a professional)...Mach3, meh I'm ok with it, I mean, it works...glad to hear LS is coming out with their own...I've already bought Mach3 but, if LS has a better software then I don't mind parking Mach3 !
Also it's important to note that your cutting speed and quality is dependent on your plasma cuter, more so than the table itself.
Wish I had one of those, Mike! Lucky guy!
It’s really been fun learning how to run it! To bad we didn’t live closer I’m sure we would hang out all the time. Ps how’s your awesome 3 wheeler modded fat cat coming along? I can’t wait to see in running!
Mike festiva
I just finished rebuilding the 185cc engine for the Mega Minibike... Will be putting out another video, soon. Weather makes it tough this time of year.
This is awesome!
Thanks for this great video! Thinking about getting something like this!
They are a game changer I a shop!
Great video as always! I just ordered my self one and was wondering if you would share your design files for the computer stand? Keep up the great videos and content!
Thumbs up #27 Go Mike GO! Love the presentations you create!!!
Thanks Joe 🙂
Happy thanksgiving my friend!
Great video. Enjoyed.
Right on thanks Jeff 👍
Mike, Fusion just changed their free license agreement to personal use with no more than $1000 revenue per year now...There are other stipulations as well. I knew this time would come. It's still great software. Thanks for sharing!
use FreeCAD. its opensource.
looks like a cool unit!
I have really been enjoying having it in my shop! Thanks for checking out my video 👍
I just ordered one and used your promo Code 👏🏼👏🏼 want to help in any way I can to see more quality content
Right on 👍Thanks!
You will really enjoy having a CNC plasma table, they are awesome!
I hope to have a lot of great videos posted this Fall 🙂
Fastest path for me has been Rhino 3d to Sheetcam. Sheetcam is critical! If you need a how to video I will make one. My 6x11 and 4x8 tables use flood coolant to make cleanup easier and no heavy water tray.
Tad Johnson Thanks for the suggestions 👍 I will look into those programs.
Here’s my newest project using my CNC plasma table, this is a series on building a mini 4x4 articulating dump truck.
Check it out if you get time.
czcams.com/video/7PoKLJym_qc/video.html
Great video, thank you.
It looks like the gantry and the torch holder have a lot of height adjustment. Would it be possible to put a square tube on the table and cut on the up facing flat surface?
Just ordered mine!!!!!
Nice!
Hey Mike, great info. What is the minimum shop space dimensions needed for the crossfire with the xl expansion kit?
Just looked at Langmuir site. Oh well, I had just bought a brand new Lotos 50 amp pilot arc plasma cutter. Looks like I'll have to sell this one and upgrade before buying the table.
Darn that’s to bad James 😕
the primeweld cut60 works great on this table....buy the pigtail from primeweld to hook up thc.....works great.....there is even a video how the guy did it....primeweld cut60....$675 on amazon....pigtail $25 from primeweld.....save some money....hypertherm 45 costs as much as the table....overkill
You kept apologizing a lot. I think you were doing great. Great videos.
Wow that's impressive Mike,....I really should get my CNC stuff finished and use it for something 'useful'. Why doesn't the plasma torch cut the support steels?
I just purchased one of their tables after watching your video last week. I noticed that the first plate that was cut(7min 50s) kept the bottom factory edge of the plate and was wondering how you got everything squared with both axis and how did you locate your origin with a factory edge. Are the two aluminum plates there so that the arc doesn't run out of the steel plate ?
do you have a video of wiring the thc controller?
Nice to see someone having fun with an item that would make a metal workers life alot easier than cutting our hands. I hope I can have room for somthing like this later on, I am sure this would make life more enjoyable when making parts
Thanks for checking out my video! This little table is definitely a game changer for me.
I definitely would recommend looking into one at some point. I’m realizing it potential more every day, especially in designing parts, I’m getting ready to take on a big project that I don’t thing I could manage without it, I’m starting on a mini articulating 4x4 dump truck!
Thanks for commenting 👍
Woot woot!!! Just got one myself!! But with a vipercut 30.... might have to upgrade to this titanium 45 next??
Garth D'Andraia NICE! I think you are going to really like it. I hope to upload a video soon about cut paths and posting G code and how to get around in Mach 3. Ps I will post a few links in the description of some videos I have found on CZcams that really helped me out to learn Fusion 360 for drawing up parts. Take care 🙂
Mike festiva thanks. My man!!!
Hi Mike, I have the same exact set as you do here. Having a problem with the torch staying on in between cuts leaving marks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
What compressor are you using with this set up ?
I find myself watching this guy over and over, because he owns everything I look into buying.... lol.
Haha 😂 Right on! This CNC has been one of the best tools I have ever purchased, I have upgraded to the crossfire PRO table now, it’s really an awesome upgrade! Take care and thanks for checking out my videos 👍
same shop press same floor belt and disk sander also have a band saw I see a lot of my shop in Mikes shop .. lol
Fuison does take little but man its awsome
Curious if you would share your toolset for the titanium 45. Complete newbie here and it would be so helpful in getting started. Thank you
Thanks so much I’m going to order one!!😀😀
Right on! I think you will be happy with it!
Hey Jon check out the videos I pinned at the top of the comments on this video, they teach you how to to draw in Fusion 360, I never used any drawing programs before I bought this table, I found these videos to be really helpful by following along and drawing the same parts as in the videos. Take care 👍
Mike festiva thanks so much I will
Great video .
Mike what’s the max circle this can cut out?
Would you recommend this one with the XL addon or the Pro. I been wanting a table a while and been using fusion360 for about 5 hours, headaches at first but getting better. I think the pro might accommodate a 4ft wide sheet but I buy new second steel that sometimes measures 46" to 52" in width. Cool video
Have you used 3d CADD s/w called RHINOCEROS to draw out your part and SLICER to convert to G- Code ?
Awesome video! I recently bought a Everlast Hatchet 60 can it be wired to the crossfire
Have you used an Everlast hatchet 60 for cnc? I have one was wondering if you make a video. Thank you !
do you have to provide your own compressed air supply to the plasma torch? or does it have an internal compressor?
Very good stuff.
Are the frames made from aluminum tubings or steel tubings?
Hi i have been trying to get information if you can run the titanium plasma cutter on a generator or if its generator friendly? Also what type of computer do you need to run that software or canyou use an apple tablet?
It’s the program softwear come along? and can i use tablet for this machine?
What air pressure, amps, and feed rate did you settle on for 1/8" steel?
Mike, what size compressor is needed to run run?
How thick of material will the Titanium 45 plasma cut?
