    Default Plasma in my future... near future now!

    Thanks to a great chat I had with my boss Friday, during the course of which he offered me a promotion and nice fat raise, I'm moving up my timeline on some projects. Acquiring a plasma cutter was one of the 'sooner than later' items on my list and sooner just happened to run up and slap me in the face.

    So, I was originally looking at a supercut 50P, but now thinking a PP50 or PP60. What's the deal with the 60S, it isn't in the list on the main site, looks a bit different than the other PP series.

    So, what's the difference between a PP50, 60, 60S? Is each a hundred more than the last? Which torch do I really want?

    Blowback vs HF? Not CNCing for a while yet, not till after the move (no room) and will likely pick up a machine for that when I do, so not worried about that aspect, but the 60S appears to be CNC friendly like the 60C but with a hand torch rather than machine torch.

    Thoughts, advice? Trying to stay near a grand to my door (well, less, I have some contest discounts to apply)

    We only sell 60S and 60C's. No more plain 60s. This is true for the 60,70,80 units.

    Is the 60S a 60C with a hand torch instead of the machine torch ?.. If not what's the difference ?

    Yeah, what he asked... the specs on the main site all look the same as when I looked a while back. Is there a new spec sheet?

    You lucky dog! Did you ask whether each week was going to end that way from now on? ;-)

    Where I'm at now, that would put me in charge of the company by the middle of next month. I've seen that job, I don't want that job...

    Trip,

    Glad things are looking up for you. For a bit, if I recall, things were a little rough. Sounds like they are all good now. Congrats...
