** Please note: Dr. D-Flo was not paid to review the Cut50L, but he did receive the unit for free. **
Dr. D-Flo's Plasma Table Build Video: youtu.be/mbo6soXn_kQ
This Dr. D-Flo video is packed full of plasma cutting content. First, David will determine if the Cut50L is compatible with the Lead Plasma table. Many import plasma cutters claim to work with hobbyist CNC tables like the Lead Plasma but in reality their use of a high frequency spark to start the plasma stream interferes with nearby electronics, such as the computer that controls the plasma cutter. To help clear up some confusion, David will explain the different operating principles of high frequency versus low frequency start plasma systems.
To put the Cut50L through its paces, David has a couple of projects lined up. One of these projects is a giant “LOVE” sign that will be used as decoration at his sister’s wedding. And yes, there will be some wedding footage, so stick around until the end of the video if you are interested.
This video also dives into common problems that arise when plasma cutting, such as short consumable life. Learn when to switch out the electrode and nozzle and how to prolong the life of these components by using clean, dry air.
The last project in this video will require some welding! Dr. D-Flo is adding a new tool to his garage, and it would not be possible without his new channel sponsor: HTP America. The ability to weld ferrous and nonferrous materials together with the Pro Pulse 220 will open the door to many awesome projects, so get subscribed!

![DIY Nixie Tube Clock Design Challenge: The Finale [Part 3 of 3]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/eClNycgTR70/mqdefault.jpg "DIY Nixie Tube Clock Design Challenge: The Finale [Part 3 of 3]
Looking for a unique and classy technology-related gift for someone special? In the following videos Dr. D-Flo and his team launch a competition to see who can make the cheapest and classiest design for a Nixie Tube Clock. In this three-part series, the team describes their competition by laying out the rules (one of which is a $50 spending limit), combs through antique stores to find unique items, and then proceeds to design and engineer casings for these Nixie Tube Clocks. We hope you enjoy watching the competition and it gives you some great ideas for DIY gifts! Let us know in the comments who you think won!
