Re: Plasma cutter

Lincoln is an ol’ stalwart, they led the industrial market for decades. You can’t go wrong with Lincoln machines.

Miller has overtaken the light industrial & home owner market. Miller went after the welder market aggressively and captured it. They are great machines

Used plasma cutters are a good bet , unless it comes from a plate or sheet metal shop it has probably seen less than 25% of its duty cycle/use for its age

Re: Plasma cutter

Thanks for the replies. This is tool I plan on using all that often. At some price it is worth it to me, and beyond that I can just keep going through angle grinders and cutoff disks. $400-$500 range works for me but beyond that, probably not. Eldogg, do you mind me asking what you paid for the used Lincoln?
