Fun with Plasma (Cutting)

I am the campus technology director at a high school here, and I have been assisting the technical education department with some of their new equipment. They had some questions about importing graphics into their plasma cutting software, so I created some simple (yet familiar) vector images in Illustrator, exported them as AutoCAD files, and imported them into their software. We used them for a test run, and it was a success. I've attached a picture of the output. It was fun. Man, I wish I had regular access to equipment like this!

Franco B:

Autocad, CNC and Spacies. Some of favourite things  :)  :cheers:

yotsuya:

Heh. Is wrong of me that as I watched the plasma cutter do its thing, I started to try and figure out a way to use it to make a replacement metal control panel?

Franco B:

Nope, thats exactly what you should be doing :)

You're the director. Isn't just a matter of penciling it into your schedule?
