That’s some serious steel your cutting!! Nice job.

Love it, might build a drawer for my truck, cutting anything anywhere! Just wish there was affordable laser/water jet option?

Holy Crap! Impressive! Never thought about mounting a torch to the Droid! Do you have a video of the cut?

I am hoping to do the same thing. What did you use for settings if you don’t mind and did you turn off the touch before start? Help would be appreciated

From memory I think around 300-400mm per minute with a #4 koike style oxy/LPG tip (40-50mm) cutting tip. You can set the cut height to zero and the droid won’t probe. Before hitting run you manually set the height with the dial. Preheat the steel and then turn the cutting knob for the oxygen and hit run. Hope that helps
