    Well, relatively new. I have been doing research on Plasma cutters for the last year or so and trying to decide which direction to point my meager funds towards.

    There is a subset of America that would like to be able to do lots of cool things that the rich folks can do because they have the equipment. I think Longevity is a great addition to the tool offereing to the people that have been stuck using things like cutting disks in the past.

    I know I have a situation where I have to be versatile. My Garage is full of woodworking and metalworking tools. I own a torch, but no bottles. Once I fugred out the cost for the hoses I need and the bottles, To cut steel I am going to pay lots more for the bottles and gas, and cutting wheels than I am if I hook an affordable plasma cutter up to the compressor I use to run my impact wrenches and my nail guns.

    you would think that the big players would understand that. Maybe someday.
