Hello from American in Philippines

Hello folks, I am a retired US military living with my wife and 6yr old triplets in the Philippines. I have been putting together a makerspace and have a 3d printer and desktop cnc milling machine (that I need to use for first time but still building shop). I would like to find out more information regarding potential use of mechmate as CNC plasma cutter. Will the speed be good for a mechmate as a plasma cutter? If I purchase plans is there a version specifically for a CNC plasma cutter? Unfortunately, in the market place I did not see lasercut and prebent parts advertised in the Philippines? What sizes will I need to work with for parts concerning shipping for largest parts? How much will I expect to spend making a table? Best regards, Mike

I'm sending emails asking quotations from laser cut companies in Malaysia... Might get replies either by the end of this week or mid next week (due to Chinese New Year holiday).

I'll let you know the cost here if you can't find a local service provider.

7 years ago it was less than USD250 for the whole set, but electric tariffs all cost variables have gone up many times since then.
