I might have a good idea for setting up a hand torch on a plasmacam setup

[ziptie007]

well as I was day dreaming about a easier or better way of trueing the position a hand torch sits in the plasmacam fixture I came up with a simple idea. I'm going to take a drill bit that fits perfectly in my consumable and I'm going to tack it to a piece of thin but sturdy sheetmetal (1"x1" or so) and I'll make sure the drill bit is a true 90* Then alls I have to do is raise my z axis and insert my little fixture and then carefully lower it till it touches my sheet metal. Then I can fine tune the adjustments. So far I put the torch in and eyeball it like 10 times over to think it looks rite. With the fixture I will be able to see if one side isn't leveled correctly. I'll keep a update on if it works or not and will take some pics.
