  • Hypertherm Helps Pixar's Cars Prepare for European Adventure
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Hypertherm Helps Pixar’s Cars Prepare for European Adventure HANOVER, N.H.—May 30, 2008—Hypertherm, the world leader in plasma metal cutting technology, is helping Pixar’s Cars prepare for their next adventure. Lightning McQueen, Sally Carrera, and Mater the tow truck are heading off to Europe this week for a summer tour that includes stops in the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and more. But before they go, the Cars are getting a little TLC from master Hollywood car customizer Eddie Paul. Paul is working to freshen up the Cars after a two year long tour throughout North America and is using Hypertherm plasma to do it. “We’ve been using the Powermax30® pretty much non-stop,” said Paul. “We took it out of the box and haven’t put it down since. The small size of the Powermax30 combined with its powerful performance has made it indispensible to us.” Hypertherm’s Powermax30 is one of the smallest and lightest plasma cutting systems around. It weighs just 20 pounds, yet contains advanced inverter technology and has an unequaled 50 percent duty cycle that enables it to provide unsurpassed performance and power. The Powermax30 is also a rugged and reliable industrial machine that can easily cut 1/4 inch thick metal and sever 1/2 inch thick metal. It is used by people who work in a variety of different industries, such as automotive repair and restoration, residential construction, and metal arts. In addition to the unit’s small size and ability to perform, Paul also really likes the Powermax30’s tapered 70-degree torch because of the arc visibility and flexibility it gives him.

When she returned, Dawn Welch settled in 16 Stroud, Oklahoma; and 17 WHEREAS, the Rock Café was opened in 1939 by its original owner, 18 Roy Rieves. In 1993 Dawn Welch became the fourth owner of the 19 restaurant located on Route 66 at 114 West Main Street in Stroud, 20 Oklahoma, midway between Tulsa and Oklahoma City. In 2002, thanks 21 to four years of effort by Dawn Welch, the Rock Café was added to 22 the National Register of Historic Places.
