Harbor Freight Plasma Cutter ???

[DGB]

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone out there has dared to take the Harbor Freight plunge and bought their plasma cutter. See http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=95136
for their description. It's not really all that detailed. I only considered it because my cutting needs are not nearly as demanding as a lot of shops are. If it will do 1/2" that is plenty enough for me. I have my OA torch set-up if I really need to get down and dirty. I am somewhat hesitant to buy equipment like this from Harbor Freight. I do go there a lot and there is stuff I have bought there that has been well worth the price. I do have problems buying Chinese but it isn't always a quality issue. What really bugs me is paying an American company for stuff they are having made in China and still trying to sell for the made in America price. If I am buying Chinese I want to pay Chinese.
