I can fabricate a basin from wood next time I'm there

OK, I ordered the check valve for the air compressor.
If you are sad
that you missed an opportunity to donate something awesome to
sudoroom, you can go here and give us money to stay alive:

also, the plasma cutter will need "consumables" meaning the little
copper things that go in the handle. It is a Hypertherm Powermax 900
and we can get 35A pieces instead of 55A pieces, primarily the inner
and outer electrodes:

we will have to look at the one we have to determine which bits to buy
(i'm not at sudoroom right now) but in the meantime it's working well
enough to cut a few things once the air compressor is working and we
make a temporary watertable on the floor...
anyone have a 2'x4' shallow water-containing thing?

here is the manual:

I am presently trying to figure out why it leaks air from a valve
whose purpose I don't understand. In the meantime it is working now.
My friend is offering to lend us a plasma cutter, which is like a
welder but cuts metal instead of welding it together. It uses
electricity and compressed air, and when we attach the business end to
the robot, we will be able to cut precise shapes out of steel of
significant thickness, making the laser cutter very jealous.
can someone print out the air compressor manual (PDF link above) and
perhaps put it in a binder so it doesn't get grimy? We can attach it
to the compressor somehow.
