cymbalism

keymo — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 18:04:53 -0500

I love doing drum cymbals because you give yourself a limited space to make an expression. This is 1 of 7 pieces that I am currently working on. It is an asian theme consisting of both Japanese and Chinese art from the 17th century.

cutting and marking

gillis — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 08:53:06 -0500

Hi every one,

I was asking in an earlier post about what kind of shade I would need for plasma cutting. So I went and both a pair of grade 5. Since they are quite dark, I was wondering, what should I use to trace the contour of the piece I want to cut. If I use, for exemple a black marker, I'm not sure I will be able to see enought to make a precise cut. What would you use for marking and tracing?

A new question about the plasma cutter

gillis — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:03:33 -0500

Hi again,

We have talked before about 75 feet of pipe for the air to dry. I would like to know, as a temporary mesure if I could use a 100 feet of hose (compressor hose) as piping?. You see, soon I will move into a bigger shop. That why I'm asking...

hot vs cold rolled

I seem to often reverse the correct description of hot rolled sheet metal vs cold rolled sheet metal.
When I cut out my components with a plasma cutter a heat pattern develops creating ribbons of colors along the cut line. Is that metal hot or cold rolled?

Selling Pieces? How does a person go about pricing their "stuff"

UNKnXfire — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 01:05:46 -0500

Hi, I was wondering how artists go about "pricing" their work? I have a few people asking me to "name a price" and I do not have a reference, where do I start? Cheap? ask what I "work" for (35.00 per hour as a weekender mechanic) or?
