Interesting project. Be sure to post up some more video when you get it all how you want it.
Cheers.

Nice cutting...Did you build that track torch setup? I've used worn out old Bug-O equipment before and it did a pretty good job with Oxy/fuel long cuts and preps for full pen welding.

After making some 8' cuts on 1/2" plate I knew there had to be a better way . A friend told me about a track torch he used in vocational school . After looking at them online and trading welding for a small south bend lathe decided to build one . The main gears are crankshaft and camshaft gear from a small engine ,the bevel gears are from a old side wind trailer jack and the little gear box was a Milwaukee 3/8" drill all powered by a channel loc 12 volt drill .
