Well, our cyberpunk-weapons-making friend Patrick Priebe has been at it again. Having previously built things like a gauss rifle, a rotary-blade-shooting crossbow and an Iron Man laser gauntlet, he ...

Designed to cut through thick and tough metals, plasma cutters are best suited for machine shops and heavy-duty construction applications. They rapidly heat up with compressed air or gas, and the arc ...

A growing number of farmers are opting to tool up with engineering-grade workshop equipment to produce their own machinery parts. And when it comes to carving out perfect sheet metal profiles, there’s ...

If you’re trying to figure out tools that make life easier, a plasma cutter might not be the first one that comes to mind. But it can be a game changer for DIYers, mechanics, and anyone working on ...

Priebe hasn’t released any instructions on how to build your own Plasma Cutter, but he is accepting orders through his website. Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your ...

Plasma cutters have become one of the most useful tools in garages and home workshops, especially for anyone who works on automotive projects, metal fabrication, or DIY repairs. Unlike traditional ...

Plasma is superheated, compressed air that ionizes to form a conductive gas. This gas conducts electricity from the torch of the plasma cutter to the work piece, through a electrode and copper nozzle ...

Researchers have developed a particle-in-cell simulation tool that is enabling cutting-edge simulations of laser/plasma coupling mechanisms. More detailed understanding of these mechanisms is critical ...
