Plasma cutters can be very dangerous to the eyes of a person, especially to the iris. This can be counteracted by having adequate glasses when using plasma cutters. Other danger is the ingestion of fumes from plasma cutters use.

How do plasma cutters work?
Plasma cutters work by shooting a high-pressure gas through a hose and arcing electricity through the gas to create plasma. Basically, plasma cutters used high temperature gas and electricity to cut through metals.
What do you use plasma for?
Plasma Cutters are metal working tools. Plasma cutters are generally used for cutting Metals upto an inch in thickness. They use compressed air and electrical current to create an arc similar to welding. The electrical arc heats the metal at a tremendous rate while the compressed air blows it out of the way. These pieces of equipment when used in a computerized setup or by someone with a very steady hand can create very high quality cuts.
What are the 3 man-made plasmas?
There are many more than three uses for Plasma in technology today. They range from the plasma in your TV, or Fluorescent light, or advertising display tube, right through to plasma torches used for cutting of metals (or anything!). Also used for plasma arc welding.Plasma torches have an important use in plasma furnacesused as a method of completely destroying dangerous chemicals, such as the PCB (poly chlorinated bi-phenyl) materials. They dissociate the compound right down to the atomic level.The temperature of the plasma arc may be up to 25 000oC.

What can you do with plasma?
First of all, a plasma is a form of matter (like solids, liquids, and gases) where the electrons have enough energy to freely leave the atoms that they would normally be bound to. While a fluorescent light bulb is on, the interior of the tube is a plasma. Those lightening ball toys have a plasma on the inside. When most people think of plasma, they think of high temperatures. Plasma cutters are used to cut metals. Plasma arc welding can fuse metals together. Some technologies use plasmas to destroy dangerous chemicals. If we could control plasma better and generate it more efficiently, then it could become a source of thrust for spacecraft.
Are fumes from plasma cutters toxic?
The fumes from the plasma cutter itself is not toxic. When cutting metals such as such as galvanized steel, lead, or cadmium-plated steel, the metal can put off toxic fumes.
