The CNC Torch Table is a computer controlled machine capable of cutting two-dimensional shapes out of large steel plates. It is a valuable tool for replication because of this capability. Many parts that make up the 50 GVCS Tools can be cut on the CNC Torch Table.
The CNC Torch Table provides a quicker solution for cutting sheet metal, especially into intricate patterns that are difficult to cut by hand.
Status

CNC Torch Table I
Prototyped and Tested in experimental production runs.
Identified software toolchain as a performance bottleneck.
Design Rational
The following points have been considered throughout Torch Table development.
- Rigid design to maximize precision
- Perfect mechanical design for replicability to 1/32" over 5.5' x 11.5' area
- Ability to cut 20 feet long 4" square tube.
- Ability to cut 10 feet long 6" square tube. (without removal of vertical slats)
- Ability to cut 10 feet long 10" square tube. (with removal of vertical slats)
