I had a hand held plasma cutter for a while which i thought i would use for cutting CP plates, i thought it was a decent purchase at the time but i could never get away with it to get a nice clean cut - just couldn't do it. Might have been me but sure we'll see what other peoples experience with them is. Grinder with metal cutting discs and flap discs was easier.
