Nice build. There's been a lot of momentum in the desktop wire EDM community too, with projects like picoEDM, Gedm, openEDM, and baxEDM. Precision is the usual weakness of plasma cutting, but I suppose it makes up for that in speed. Have you tried tuning for kerf width or taper, or is that more trouble than it's worth at this scale?
