Thanks buddy! It's one of those tools that normally you can't justify if it's just a hobby thing...but at this money...hell yeah I'll happily give it a try. :)
Thanks Jason! A bit more practice required but I had loads of fun with it. Think one of the next jobs is a decent workbench for weld/cutting...The milkman's going to be livid!👍😁
Thanks Pam, when the family thought the gate looked a little too 'industrial'(well it is 4foot 2 wide by 6 foot high!lol)we decided some decoration might help...Sneekswallart did a tree frog in epoxy a while back and I knew I'd like to use that shape!👍😁
Thanks Claire! Well....I'm going to be doing a bit of sourcing some thicker material to trial it on...but I believe it should be able to do 9 m/m thick in mild sheet steel! That's be a heavy old chunk. Will have to get the bigger compressor on the go as this little one is at full capacity and I'd be worried that thicker stuff might require a tad more pressure..watch this space for more updates...I intend to find out how good this machine is.👍😁
That looks surprisingly capable for a cheapy! Thanks for the review Huey, I had no idea plasma cutters were so simple to use. And like Claire, I have no idea why I need one, but i want one anyway! Cheers buddy!
Thanks Pete!😁👍 As long as you have a small compressor/access to a compressor you're away! And seeing as Lidl and Aldi both do cheap compressors what's not to love?! Now if only they did TIG welders too...🤣
I previously owned a 30 amp plasma cutter sold by R_ TECH UK for over £430 and this little parkside one from lidle cuts superb in comparison . I purchased the 30amp from lidle UK and the 40 amp version from Germany so I now have two. These are superb machine's for little money .can't be beaten.
I agree wholeheartedly! Seems very capable...it's now been used on 3 and 5 m/m flat steel and was just as good, the more I'm using it the cleaner the cut seems to be too...I'm getting a feel for how fast to move the 'torch'. Absolutely cracking value for money!😁👍
Yes it will be interesting, I'm sourcing some different gauge materials for testing with it too. Seriously fun bit of kit! Thanks for checking it out.👍😁
@@HueyLionsheart I've only used a plasma cutter once (and that was an industrial one in a welding class) so to see what a ultra budget one can do will be fun!
@@CrudeButEfficient Today it breezed through 4m/m and 5 m/m plate. My little compressor is at full bore though so I need to get something better sorted!
hello there i gor recomended by Ralph Mourik to check you in ;) and new sub from me ;) Ralph Mourik is an good guy ;) i do also use alot of parkside lidels stuff ;) great video and new sub from me ;)
Thanks for checking it out Johnny and the cool comment!😁👍 Ralph is a great bloke! I'm beginning to think that Aldi and Lidl have their finger well and truly on the pulse for tooling, seems to be pretty good quality stuff at brilliant prices! 🏆
That was a nice opportunity and a cool project to test your new plasma cutter.
Thanks buddy! It's one of those tools that normally you can't justify if it's just a hobby thing...but at this money...hell yeah I'll happily give it a try. :)
Great buy for the workshop. for those who love metal
Definitely, a real handy tool to have....and the outlay isn't too expensive!😁👍
That bit of kit works great. And the frogs look great too. 😀
Thanks mate! Yes it just slices straight through this thin stuff....will be sourcing some tougher stuff to test it on soon!👍😁
Happy new plasma cutter Huey! The treefrogs came out really cool👍
Thanks Steve, gotta love those mad green little fellas! :)
Yup. Ima gonna need one of those.
Oh it's a rare old bucket of fun Leona! I've been out cutting 4 and 5 m/m plate like its paper with sharp scissors! :)
Brilliant for the money. Thanks Huey

This is great Huey love the frog. :-)

I don’t know what I need one for but I need one!!! That’s so cool! What thickness would be max? 🥰🌲🦊🥰

Thanks Stace! Loads of fun!😁👍
Nice tool Huey. I can already see lots of use with it.Great buy for the workshop
Cheers Dave, you're not wrong mate, it'll get a fair bit of use in my shop..already done another project with it!👍😁
Very nice Huey! You are going to have a lot of fun with that.
Thanks Pat...it's a hoot to use...can't wait to get it set up properly and test some thicker stock too!😁👍
That looks surprisingly capable for a cheapy! Thanks for the review Huey, I had no idea plasma cutters were so simple to use. And like Claire, I have no idea why I need one, but i want one anyway!

do you have a store or anyway that i can buy one of your maker stickers logo of you for my tool chest
Lenny, are you on FB or Insta? If so look me up(links in description!) and we'll get a sticker in the post to you mate!👍😁
Interesting - Lidel sells everything. 🙄
Will be interesting to see how long it will keep going...

That’s cheap for a plasma
He said Knob :-)
🤣🤣
I know right! Couldn't resist grabbing one for that price, Thanks Howard.😁👍
Whoa I’m way behind, you can’t fault that for the price, do try to keep you air dry, it’s the moisture that eats your consumables.
Thanks Ian...duly noted!👍😁
