    Mytechno3D, great job with this, I am currently building my own plasma head based on your design but I cannot seem to see your "Post Processor config" on the construction page, only the first few lines. Would you be able to attach the whole file please. Thanks for your inspiration. Regards Mark

    Checkout Openbuilds CAM: Initial Height Sensing setup help needed - added Plasma support to the free OpenBuilds CAM last week. CONTROL supports plasmas for a while already

    We also have a Fusion post (at docs.openbuilds.com > software) with Plasma support

    And BlackBox too: docs:blackbox:connect-plasma [OpenBuilds Documentation]
