Opo the Dolphin
This 3D Puzzle was made in Honor Opo the Dolphin in New Zealand.
She was a wonderfully loving and intelligent Dolphin who loved and trusted people!
Opo was a bottlenose Dolphin who became famous throughout New
Zealand during the summer of 1955-1956 for playing with the
children of the small town of Opononi on the Hokianga harbour.
Opo was a wild dolphin who started following fishing boats around
Opononi after her mother had been killed and would swim daily in
the bay close to town. Unlike the majority of Dolphins, she had
no qualms about human company and would perform stunts for locals,
play with objects like beach balls and bottles and allow children
to swim alongside her and make contact. The Dolphin became a local
celebrity and news of her soon spread and visitors throughout the
country came to watch her. On March 8th, 1956 official protection
for Opo was made law but a day later she was found dead,
accidentally killed by fishermen fishing with gelignite. Her death
was reported nationwide, and she was buried with full Maori honors
in a special plot next to the town hall.
Collect Opo the Beautiful and Legendary Dolphin today and remember
her charm and gentleness as we do. :)

These Plasma patterns are not simple copies of our Router patterns they have been redrawn to create new scales and slots specially for Plasma.
If you purchase our Router patterns you will NOT get the same results if you just scale them up or down in size due to slot sizes being at a different scale factor for Metal working.
Includes the following Sheet Steel Gauge slot size patterns in the scales from small to Giant size.

All our plasma patterns come in three scale sizes and will be in the industry standard DXF file format. This is not slot sizes for thickness of material so don't be confused. The slot sizes will start at 12 gauge imperial sheet steel size of .1046 and will go up and down from there. The same will apply as metric equivilants.
The first and smallest model size will be based on our 1/8th inch CNC router and laser patterns. Typically these patterns have parts no larger than 8.5 X 11 inches or 214 mm X 280mm at .1250 inches and the finished model is usually around 12 to 14 inches in length and height. The slots will have scales of 10,12, 14 and 16 Gauge as well as their metric sheet steel equivilants and the smallest size model will come from the 16 gauge and get larger as you go down the gauge scale.
The second size will be based on our .25 or 1/4 inch router/C02 laser patterns. These are typically twice the size of the .1250 patterns so you can double the size from 12 to 14 inch models to 24 X 28 or there abouts BUT this is where plasma is different than wood in that we keep our slot sizes the same as in the small scale models again being 10,12, 14 and 16 gauge and their metric equivilents.
The third size again follows the same formula as the first and second sizes but in this case is based on our .5 or half inch patterns and still uses the thinner gauge slots for sheet steel. When using this set of files be prepared to create giant Dinosaurs and creatures of all kinds. Perhaps even a Monster size Spitfire Aircraft or American Bison.
