Can't help with this one, but keep us appraised on what you find out. I've
been drooling over the idea of a plasma cutter!

Seems to me that I picked up mine at the local auto paint supply store.
However, I'm NOT real impressed. It seams that it would be easier to drill
the spot weld completely out, then try to weld up the hole left in the
good piece of metal.
When I used the spot-weld cutter I have, I ended up cutting 1/2 way or all
the way through the good piece of metal. Maybe I just don't know how to
use it properly.
