That's what I like to hear. The rest of this should be out in the next three weeks or so - just got a bunch of video to review, fix up, and edit. An absolute pain in the ass, but I'm glad to hear it's helping! That's what makes it worth the effort.
The water table helped a lot with the dust, though I also had a ventilator fan running in one window (creating a cross-breeze) and I wore a respirator whenever I was doing dirty work. For the small shop I had (12x22'), this was sufficient.
Just a DB25-1205, the bog standard parallel port breakout board. All it does is take the pins from your parallel port cable and split them out into screw terminals - very simple, but it works. Mine was from Wantai Motors on eBay, but there's tons of options out there. Here's an older video of mine on all of that: th-cam.com/video/vR2xxRQQtyQ/w-d-xo.html
Again, thank you, some of the bits I’ve cobbled together and managed to get to work I actually sorta have an idea what’s going on now 😂🤦♂️

Hi, does your plasma cutter generate a lot of dust? If so is extraction etc required?
