$150 Plasma Cutting Table - With Spark Collector

In this video I take a $105 plasma cutting table off amazon and add a great spark collecting feature. By using less than half a sheet of 20Ga sheet metal you can basically eliminate dangerous sparks flying around your shop while you work!

See below for a link to the layout of the metal collector pyramid:

You have just saved me about $120.00 over Amazon's price for the Eastwood version of this table. Thanks a bunch!

[robthewaywardwoodworker]

It's great how you show the warts and all. Some videos only show how amazingly perfect some guys like to pretend to be! LOL Thanks for the heads up on the table, great value!

[carlwhite]

Thanks for the plans, I just bought one of these tables so big help as i hate catching my boot laces on fire.

[davidturpin]

You probably have already thought of it
But if you put a small expanded metal screen down in your hopper you would be able to catch smaller parts and not have to dig them out of your bucket

Very Nice setup

[VictorPerez-thzm]

They finally have them in stock at Jegs’s for under $100. Was about to drop $230 on one from Amazon. Thank you so much for this.
Going to make one soon!

[derekpeterson]

Great build, thanks for sharing your time and talent!

[HouseofChop]

The fold up one I built saved me some space but this is such a cost effective way to go and your upgrade with the funnel section makes it spot on! Another great build sir 🔥👍🏼🔥

[ejennings]

Excellent video and idea, something I will be doing for my shop. Earned my subscription.

[DerekConwayTX]

Great idea. Gonna keep this spark diverting device in mind when my plasma cutter arrives!!

[mikebevan]

Love the idea. I am going to build a little bigger table, but will need to modify plans for a bigger collector. Also in watching your video, I noticed that bad ass belt grinder. Did you build that, or bur it? Would love to see your plans, if you ordered them, please share where. Thank you

[patchesofgreen]

Simple and elegant solution. Nice design. Thanks for the lesson.

[machaf]

Thanks for the plans! Got it cut and tacked up today. Just need to do some minor fit up issues and weld the entire seam.

[Robocoppat]

Talk about Common Sense. My sandblasting cabinet has the same taper underneath it to catch the sand. And that's a great price for the table.. just in case you want to modify it, you have a great base to start with. 2 THUMBS UP 👍👍

[Phoeff]

Fwiw for those reading these comments and watching this video now I just picked up the Klutch brand plasma table that is identical to this for $85 on clearance at Northern Tool (online price is $99 which is also good)

[jj]

I got the last one that Jegs had yesterday. I had to call cause it was missing some of the bolts. She also said they won’t be back in stock till April as they are switching manufacturers.

[stevenmark]

Nice job on the collector. And thanks for letting us know about the table. Super deal! You volume is pretty low. Had to hold the speaker up to my ear to hear.

[Uncle_Bucks_Forge]

Great timing I just got a Hypertherm powermax 45 and want a table. I'll be getting one of these and making the collection system. Thanks

[plsmithed]

Nice ingenuity man! This design could also work well as a hood for heat deflection and fume extraction for a forge with some ducting and in-line fan

[MarshmallowVogt]

cool video but couldn't help but wonder why you were using circular saw, and 4 inch grinder to cut sheet metal when you obviously have a plasma cutter

[opengun]

Plasma table coming today going to start building spark arrestor from your plans. Been looking for some time on how to make one & finally found yours.
Thank you for sharing your plans & knowledge.
