Simple question: I am fairly new to this whole plasma cutting thing and curious as to what you guys use for slag removal on cut parts? Do I just need to get a needle scaler?

A needle scaler with a chisel tip works about the best.
On all equipment there are 2 levers...
Lever "A", and Lever F'in "B"
maneric acid works good. mix with water 50/50 in a plastic tub do not use a steel tub in time it will eat through it. also the acid we desolve aluminum!!!!
If your tip is in good shape, air is clean & speed is just right. You shouldn't have a lot of slag to remove. Sometimes a short length of flat bar works pretty good too. Slide the end of it along the plate perpindicular to the slag banging into it.
If it works.....Don't fix it!
