What size torch tip should be used to cut rusted steel?

FAQ - Watertorch.com
We recommend to remove any rust. If you are cutting rusty iron, the BG will do it more reliably and with less spitting, popping and missed cuts than conventional fuel-gas. We recommend using 'flush' type tips. 'Recessed' tips will heat up because the flame will touch the metal. Assuming you are using the Victor brand of torch: Use a #0 torch-cutting tip for up to 1 inch of steel (sometimes thicker).

How do I cut up a sheet of piezoceramic into the size I want?

Piezo Systems - Frequently Asked Questions
Ceramic is best cut using a special diamond saw. Small prototype parts can be cut from piezoceramic sheet stock by using a razor blade and a straight edge to score the piezo surface and then making a controlled break.

gt; You need to find a person with a stationary wire wheel grinder, you will turn that grinder on, the wire wheel will whirl, and you will hold that rail to the wheel until the rust is gone. This will take upwards of 15 minutes to do a good job. When the rust is gone, the rail will be dark grey, nearly black. This can be done with a wire wheel attached to a drill motor, too, but the results are not as good, and it would take an hour to do it right.

Question - How thick a sheet of steel will plasma cut?

Technique is paramount when it comes to penetration when pushing the thickness limits and you can expect to change out tips more frequently.

Can I use any torch?

Beadfx - Art Clay Silver - Frequently Asked Questions
Any torch that will bring the piece to the right temperature and hold it there is fine. I would tend to avoid using acetylene as it is sooty and could create a problem. Using a torch that is designed to be used in a horizonal position for 2 minutes is a good idea. Propane or MAPP torches with a swirl tip are an excellent choice, and are available from your hardware store.
