I can get a used in like new condition with machine torch style hypertherm for $2500, or get the HTP plasma cutter for around $1600+ tax with hand torch . I know HTP makes badass welders , i believe made in italy . I ve attached a link for the HTP. HTP consumables are cheaper btw. MicroCut 45 DV – HTP America - USA Weld
I would probably buy neither and go get the Harbor Freight Titanium 65 amp Plasma cutter. You can send me the change if you really want to blow 2500 dollars. There is a video of a guy cutting through a 1 1/2 inch think hammer with it. Harbor freight Titanium 65 amp plasma cutter test. This old hammer measured 1.125 - YouTube
I have the Hypertherm 45XP and love it. The consumables last forever and they are readily available. There are also a ton of options for them. Buy once, cry once…FYI the 45XP will sever cut that same 1-1/8" hammer…It is not 1-1/2".
