The other thing that stood out for me was at time 2:29 in this "cutting characteristics" video:

Remember when cutting non-conductive materials like ceramic tiles it must be done only in mode 1.

That is pretty interesting. Ive never had to cut ceramics before, but it is a pretty neat option.

.....it shows that the ground wire (at least in mode 1) is NOT used to sustain the plasma current.

I like the fact that it doesn't need a compressor to cut. I wonder how that would do on a CNC gantry?

I forgot where i saw it, but some guy had it hooked up to a robot arm and it was welding sheet metal into tubes...
