Scorpion, I was just looking at the Dynatorch site under the whats new section and I see they have been fixing or updating their software every few weeks.
http://www.dynatorch.com/WhatsNew.htm I don't know which version you have but the latest version talks about Ipm speed settings. I do know you must pay $300.00 per year for software upgrades after a certain length of time from initial purchase. As for the alignment issue you speak of I have heard of it before on another one of their machines. The owner said the long axis had a bow that was .125 out when it arrived in the crate. I think they must outsource their tables although you would think they would catch that before shipping though. I decided to build my own table as I wanted to incorporate a water tray and avoid any other issues. I am close to being finished. I did notice the rail length issue and offset my rails in relation to the table. The gantry has about 10' 6" travel from end to end but part of the table is unused. I do have a friend who has a Plasma Cam. He had no computor experience before buying it and the 3 months free tech support expired before he got the machine all set up. To my surprise he was able with a little help from his computor savy wife get it up and going. He cuts all types of stuff with it from signs, art, brackets etc. The detail is incredible in some of the smaller items he cuts although he has had a year to get good at it. He has it hooked up to a Hypertherm 1000. This is not a plug for Plasma Cam but I do think it has its place. I think it looks to be a great prototype or very low production machine. After 3 months you must pay for any tech support. I think it is $500.00 per year. Their 4x4 table is to small and lightweight for any serious work. I bought the 5x10 Dynatorch gantry for use in a production enviroment and I liked the idea of free lifetime tech support. It seemed like a middle of the road machine, not a $50,000.00 machine but a machine that could still be used for production work. Its great that their are several Dynatorch owners here. It helps to share information.
