Affordable laser/water jet cutting

[XEMON]

Hello,

Does anyone have a contact for water jet/laser cutting?
I have a few items I may want done for projects, but some of the prices are so bad ... It would be cheaper to get my own water jet in the garage ...

Thanks for the help,
X

That's my main line of work.... Burn I think our minimum charge is $500

That has been my issue, most of my project will be very small quantities ... and i cannot justify that big of an expense for a handful of plates ...

I stumbled across Sendcutsend.com a while back but haven't actually used them yet. They seem decently priced, give breaks at 5 parts and at various price points. Cheaper than other places I've found online anyway...

I sent you a PM. Our last big order that we are expecting for the year is almost done so we have some jet time about to free up.

I saw it, thanks.
Im finishing up a few drawings in SW to send to you for a quote.
Thank for reaching out, you should have an email in the next day or 2 at the most.

Why dont you buy a cnc 3018 for $150 and cut them yourself?

Yeah idk about steel, maybe mild. I've been able to cut aluminum, but you've gotta take it slow

Interesting, do you have the stock spindle?
Ive seen some "dremel" spindle upgrades that seam pretty easy ...

Oh wow, I didn’t know those existed at that price. I need to get out more.
