Excellent, Martin! I’ve been wanting a plasma cutter as well. Looks like Vevor carries some interesting products. Thanks for sharing. Great edit!

I did not know where to install the air filter until I saw you install it on the back of the machine thanks David.

Nice job Martin see you on your next project.

Excellent addition to your shop. Vevor chose wisely to do the product review. By the way, these Chinese made CUT50 plasma cutters are notorious for not achieving 50 amps output. If you have a clamp meter you can check it yourself. That said, these low cost inverter plasma cutters are a cost breakthrough for the consumer. I have three CUT50 inverter plasma cutters and a 1990’s 30 amp Thermal Arc transformer plasma cutter. These inverter plasma cutters are a great value. Thanks for sharing. Bill S.

Very interesting. As you said, you will get better with practice. Great video as always Martin.

Hi Martin, I have often wondered about these Economical plasma cutters and whether they would actually perform. This really proved they do work! A great informative video. Would be great to see a follow up after several months of good use. Take care

That is likely to be my next tool to buy! Thanks for doing that honest review. I've checked on Vevor, they have their specific Canadian website and this model is available for us too! Thanks!

Excellent video! I have this cutter arriving in a couple days, looking forward to using it! I have a Vevor tig welder with similar troublesome gas connectors, hopefully they address that and go with something less problematic.

Awesome video Martin 😁👍 Glad to see you got a plasma cutter you are going to enjoy how convenient it is besides the mess. Good idea to have a respirator too. Thanks for the video 🚜💨🍳☀️

Thanks for sharing Martin. I’ve become more of a visual learner in my later years, possibly due to “life events”. This video will prove helpful for when I unbox/set up my plasma cutter. I ran out of time to use it as I ran out the door to my winter home in FL. Miss my tools and tractors. Can’t have everything it seems. You do inspire me to be more orderly, but 7# in a 5# shop makes it a real challenge. As you recently pointed out, whatever size you think you need, add 50%.

Congrats on your plasma cutter Martin! You need a lathe and milling machine next and you will be ready to open for business. Thanks for sharing!

Nice little machine. I envy the pilot arc. I have a cut-50 that has served me for years, but it is drag start. I'm no pro, but It looked to me like you could crank up the air pressure a good bit bit. A quick trip to the hardware store you could pick up a good gauge and some better fittings... Keep an eye on the sparks on the back of cut, you want them coming straight-ish ( slight angle on thicker stuff) off the back. if they are flying sideways you are gouging more than cutting. It took me a good while to get used to setting up (much like it did learning mig welding), but I have slogged through 5/8 plate with mine (wasn't easy or pretty but sure beat a cutoff wheel!) Looking forward to seeing what you make with it!

Nice video, Martin! In my last video about plowing snow, Jason made some modifications to my back blade using a plasma cutter, among other things. What a remarkable tool! Way better than cutting with an oxy-acetylene torch!! Cheers!

That is a sweet little unit Martin. I would sure have to think that it is well worth the money.

Well the air hose fiasco is pretty inexcusable, but beyond that, it looks like a pretty capable unit given the price point. Great review as always Martin. 👍

How's she goin'? It'll be nice to have the plasma cutter. I have been dreaming of one for some time now. This looks like a good DIY occasional use model. Thanks for sharing and good luck with your new cutter!!!

either heat up the hose or use isopropyl alcohol to lubricate and evaporate quickly

looks like fun

Hi Martin, Thanks for the video. I was thinking about picking one of those up for awhile now but hesitant until I saw your video. Have you had more time to practice on it? If so would you recommend the Vevor? Thanks, Bryan

Hey Martin. Great video! I like how you went through the trials and tribulations of the machine. I have one coming in the next couple of days. I have one question for you. How many amps is your 220V breaker? I have a 30 amp breaker on my circuit. Would it be prudent to bump it up to 50 amp?

I wonder if soaking the end of the air hose in some really hot water would help that to slide on easier

Martin, ? Have you tried cutting 1/2" mild steel yet. And if so how did the unit perform.

What is the purpose of the grounding clamp?

Martin you may want to increase the air pressure so it blows thru. Try around 60 psl. Hope you like it as much as I like mine. Later

If you have any land to take care of you gotta have a tractor. If you have a tractor you gotta have a welder. If you have a welder you gotta have a plasma cutter. And you're right. Fun, fun, and more fun along with the joys of being unstoppable.. somewhat.

Oh now Martin!! I just bought two Craftsman LED tri-pole leg stand lights!! How will I ever justify THIS to the Mrs?!?!🤫 Let’s review. You popped the 20 amp breaker at 30 amps on 110v. But no issues at 50 amp on 220v? My 220 welder outlet is a 30 amp breaker. Do you suspect I may have issues at 220v with a 30 amp breaker? Sure makes cutting metal a lot less stressful!😁 Thanks for sharing!! Oh, and happy new year!!🎊

There would be a way where you could get 110V at 40A... You would need to plug two extension cords into two different outlets which were on different circuits, but were also on the same side of your circuit breaker box... Then you would need to wire that into an adapter that combined those into a single 110V receptacle... Unfortunately, the highest rated receptacle that I've seen is 20A though... On the other hand, if you have two outlets that are on different sides of the circuit breaker box, you could get 220V out of it if you wire it correctly... If someone doesn't understand how this might work, and how to verify that they are using the right wires, then they probably should not be attempting it... The above comment is based on the unit I bought (PlasmArgon) that came with the standard 110V plug instead of the 220V plug that is on your unit. Your unit's electrical connection is designed better in my opinion... For your unit, you could create a conversion adapter that had a 220V receptacle on on one end and two 110V plugs on the other end. This could be wired similarly to my description in the previous paragraph so that you either get higher amperage 110V (e.g. 110V @ either 30A or 40A) or get 220V @ 15A or 20A. Most 110V house circuits are 15A, but *some* are 20A.

Turn the air pressure up!

Wonder what that does to your electric bill? Probably about the same as a welder but I have no clue. Does look like fun.

Great vid I just got one ,,But mine cuts without the ground clamp I wanted to know what the ground clamp is for ? Its a non touch cutter

Hello! It's been a few months, have you had any major trouble using the Vevor yet? I'm repairing an old brush hog I picked up cheap and am considering a plasma cutter for the job. Thanks!

Mine didnt have the 2 studs on the back of it

Your running it with the pressure to low. You want to go 0.5 mpa/70psi minimum. Your technique looks fine.

What made you decide on the Vevor?

why would you not just get different hose/fittings and a different gauge for the regulator? easy

Bonsoir Sir 👍😇👌 ( I WAS REALY WAITING FOR YOUR VIDEO 🧐👍) Great Tele transportation plasma cutter Sir 😇👍 Ho LA LA, I do not like that snake 16 feet long Sir 🥴🤣👍 Yes why they did not make the same length of the torch ?? 16 feet long, I guess you have to make an extension ground cable 😇👍👌 OUTSTANDING FIELD TESTING CUTHING Sir 👌👍🧐 That is very nice modification on air supply 🧐👍💪 Slow win the race 👍🧐👌 Yes like in many things, practice does make perfect Sir 😇👌👍 That is an OUTSTANDING Plasma Cutting Video Sir Cheers👍✨🚀😇🍻

Excellent video. New friend here.🔔 You have a fantastic channel. Have a good weekend. 💚170

Vevor's marketing model seems to be to give away product to any KZfaq channel with more than a thousand subscribers. I'm not accusing anyone of fudging the review, but the conflict of interest can't be ignored.

Good review. Looks like a cutter to avoid

Pressure gauge in kg/sq-in? LMAO... They can't decide if they want to do metric or US customary units? EDITED: At the 7m07s point, you show the pressure gauge and if I use a magnifying glass to enlarge it (old eyes), I see that it is in kg/sq-cm which is a more expected unit of measurement for something coming from a metric country... :) It is also a unit of measurement that someone from the US could convert from by just remembering a couple of conversion factors instead of needing a unit conversion calculator... 2.54 cm/in and approx 2.2 lbs/kg... 1 kg/sq-cm = 2.2 lbs / sq-cm = 2.2 lbs * 2.54 cm/in * 2.54 cm/in / sq-cm = appox 14.2 lbs/sq-in Plugging that into the 45 psi that you were trying to achieve at 7m13s -- 45 / 14.2 = 3.17 kg/sq-cm which looks extremely close to what you set your regulator at... Of course, I rounded a lot here, but considering the accuracy of one of those types of gauges, it won't make a difference... :)

For a cleaner cutting experience, check out the plasma cutting bench extension video from Mike Festevia. Simple design that attaches to the side of your welding table. Water bath collects most messy bits.

I have this machine and it's actually not very good. I regret not purchasing a USA produced Hypertherm. This Vevor machine is a fussy nightmare and yep, I had many problems with the poor quality air hose.

why would anyone use this on 110?
