Today I made first tests with pipe actually clamped in machine with
Machinekit running on beaglebone for plasma pipe cutter I planned to
develop.

I was able to do UI with machinetalk interface to reach for linuxcnc
functionality that was needed.
Machinetalk allows you to move UI on PC instead having it on linux server -
part of 3d interface seen on video below.

If you are interested to see little shaky video checkout:

Hypertherm Plasma 45XP & THC is still not integrated, but I plan to do that
in comming months.

regards Klemen
