I have concluded hydrogen is the future...
Of pasma cutting stainless steel. With my hypertherm xp45.
I have been trying to get F5 plasma cutting gas which is high purity nitrogen hydrogen mixture, to the tune of 95% nitrogen and 5% hydrogen.
It's expensive for what it is if I could get it. So I have come to the conclusion that I will have to make my own.
High purity nitrogen is easy to get, high purity hydrogen is easy to get, but is expensive.
F5 gas cuts stainless steel cleanly leaving a ready to weld edge.
I'm thinking this hyperspace pirate video is as an excellent starting point.

Floating a balloon, plasmas cutting stainless, pretty much the same thing.
