Did you ever get any where on this? I'm looking for someone who can do this type of laser tube cutting, but for mild steel, as opposed to stainless. It would be nice to have a list of shops with this capability that I could contact.

Hello, I need 3 parts + 3 drill jigs made, a machined plastic piece, and two machined + welded parts. One of the welded parts (mount) can be either a zinc plated (no yellow) steel, or just SS. The other (base) is steel, and if you can paint it or press bearings on, all the better. If...

I want to thank those who privided quotes, and apologize for those of you I missed while sending out prints. I have selected a supplier for this part.

Not a single quote! What is it, bad print? Too hard? Everyone have enough money already?

Everyone who messaged me or posted in this thread should have gotten a copy of the prints. If you did not, please send me a message.

Ok, everyone who has replied to this thread should have gotten the prints. If you did not, please send me another message, I have missed you in the mailing.

I used them for a year. It was about $3000 for the year. I landed about $2500 in business from that site, with not a whole lot of work. So, I would say I lost about $2000 in the deal. Although I don't necessarily think it's a "scam", I do think it's a money pit. My opinion, stay away as a...

I need two prototypes of a sheet metal enclosure made. It will require cutting the sheet metal (laser, water, maybe a mill), a few tapped holes, bending (brake), welding, and if you can, painting / powder coating. I would want you to provide the material (unless you want me to buy it from...

I've got a flat aluminum part, 7"x7 3/4" x 14 ga (0.0787") with some holes (4 tapped, 4 thru), and an odd shaped cutout. I need the part machined (milled, water cut, laser, whatever), then either tapped or if you want to press in some pem's, that's ok too, and then deburred (it's going to be...

Well, i have found it to be good practice to compare prices on anything I buy, personal or business-wise. I also compare lead times, company reputation, among other factors. But, for the sake of this conversation, if you would like to do the work for $1200 or less (all the parts i need)...

Although this may be true for some, ours is the opposite, Nov / Dec are the busiest, people trying to use up budgets I think, just my 2c....

1) Material type Gray PVC or hdpe. Whatever is cheaper / easier. 2) Is a material quote required or is material supplied. I would prefer you supply it, I have a local supply for plastics however, and if it's cheaper / easier, i can have them send it to you. All the material is the same...
