Its a chance to bring my hardware to a big audience!
Its gotten to the point where I have so much invested its time to make something of it or get passed by a big name.

They have the marketing and most importantly the programming muscle to make this machine/software "turn-key" enough and "direct" enough for the shop level user.
I'm the hardware guy which suits me well, any programs and solutions I've constructed have just been hacker scripts. The scripts have taken hundreds of hours and they're easy just to pass around, finding there ways to anybody's rotary plasma

We're really aiming to take this machine to a good stable platform with the best of the best, machine and software wise.

I know its over the hobbyist price point

. In all my trade show tests, the "KIT" products never really gathered much interest. We had to come with a nice hefty machine and most clamming for a turn-key.

Hopefully there will be some trickle-down products after launch, we shall see.

Eh, I'm happy to keep my end low key/background. It'll allow me to concentrate on building machines. I'll play the behind the scene machine maker. I really don't have the staff to man the support side which is 90% software.

I got their email yesterday and recognized the machine I was looking at. I too thought it was strange they left out who was building it. I didn't even see a "Built in the USA" tagline included anywhere!

I was waiting for your comments as I didn't know if you were still involved with it or if they "bought" the idea from you and left you hanging. I'm glad your project is moving forward commercially and wish you success. It looks like a well polished package.
