What is the normal home position for a plasma table? Do you normally cut in the X and Y positive quadrant (quadrant 1) so the sheet is 0,0 on the front left of the material? On my mill I normally cut in quadrant 4... I'm almost done with my machine and I want to set it up the same as normal ones. I could actually cut today if I wanted YEA! Thanks John  |

| My Home 0,0 is front left. If it were me I'd make 0,0 where it is most convienient to operate based on location in your shop, other equipment etc.

| I was thinking that front left would be the most intuitive. I'm figuring that most cuts will be in the front as the machine is portable and after chewing up part of a sheet most likely I will trim the front edge square before quitting for the day. Thanks John |
