I now believe as Junk does that a torch can do as nice of work as the plasma, only difference might be consumables and the cool to touch splama ability.

Don't be mislead. Plasma ain't cheap to run. Tips are $5 and electrodes are $25. When the plasma and air compressor are running they are drawing 35 Amps at 460V. You never really count the cost of electricity though do you? The good news is you rarely run out of electricity at midnight in a Saturday night like I always seem to with the Oxy/ Acetelene
