Peter’s Sign Challenge piece would have been almost impossible to accomplish without the new MultiCam plasma cutter. At the very east it made things ten times faster. The speed of the design in EnRoute and the precision of the cutting made fitting the pieces dead easy.
The plasma cutter also allowed a complexity which wouldn’t have been possible any other way.
The top section of the box is removable and slides up into the box from the bottom. The coin operating mechanism was built in sections to facilitate this.
Other bits done using the plasma cutter include the gauge on the side which was cut from three pieces of steel and then welded into a section of pipe.
Peter’s piece is now finished. He used it as a project to learn EnRoute and the operation of the MultiCam plasma cutter and router. I’d say he’s a quick learner without a doubt. I look forward to many more projects from his creative hand and mind in the future!
