[AT] Plasma cutter OT

[charlie hill]

A while back someone posted a question about a particular plasma cutter that 
was inexpensive.  I made a mental note to ask a friend of mine what he 
thought.  When I saw him a week or so later he said that the major expense 
of plasma cutters is in the consumables not the purchase of the machine.  He 
figured the cheap unit probably worked fine but had proprietary supplies 
that were expensive.

The point being, you need to look at the overall cost of using it rather 
than just the expense of buying the cutter.
