I was able to get a 25 ft Radnor ATC cable extension for $90 new.. These are the same as the the Thermal Dynamics one torch.. I had a adapter to go from the machine to the ATC style end.. What this allowed, was to be able to use the extension and SL-40 torch I had. Also the Radnor replacement cable allowed me to built a new SL-60 torch for this machine, and my 60i plasma. It saved me quite a bit of money over a new torch. and found a new handle also (Radnor head, and consumables are the only difference between torches..
The SL-60 torch was what I was after the whole time, and ended up with a pretty good plasma in the Pakmaster 50.. The SL40 torch is problematic on my 60i, but works perfect with the Pakmaster. Should not, because it is not rated for High freq like the SL-60 Guess the CD start is a bit easier to handle on the pakmaster.. Whole thing has been a success by thinking a bit out of the box, and rolling the dice. Helps to know what works in mix, and matching things.. This economy will reward those who know a bit about things..Others will pay over retail..
