Next year I'm teaching a middle school Design and Modeling class with Autodesk. Guess who's going to be asking a lot of questions around here....

You will need motor drivers and then usually a Mach III controller the older ones required a working parallel port compute...

Then there is the THC (torch height control ), you will maybe want to add. The other issue is the plasma cutter you will need to use with the table. Not all plasma cutters can be successfully be triggered remotely and then often they interfere with the electronics. Its a fun project, but lots of lit...

Having owned the Cadillac of plasma cutters the PlasmaCAM I know a little. It was neat to run but I got tired of the plasma dust and handling the steel. It seems that the Mach III controller is kind of the default for homebrew plasma cutters.
