You can get a laser etcher for a few hundred bucks. But a cutter with enough juice to cut 1/4" wood or acrylic is gonna be a couple grand. --- End quote --- Yeah cnc and/or 3d printers are a better match for such a project. Unless you insist on burnt wood that is. (Never have understood why laser cutters have caught on.... they do on purpose what I would consider a mistake if I did it.... scorch the wood during cutting) --- End quote --- Well, laser cutters work great for acrylics...

Hey, I'm not sure exactly how to ask...but I'd like to get a couple pieces cut (I guess precision cut?), like a control panel with holes, but cut in various materials such as plexi, mdf, sheet metal, wood. I'm not sure if these should all be the same cutting technique, or how to go about seeking a vendor. I would need the cuts to be accurate and clean, and repeatable later if needed. Any idea what type of shop to seek locally, and/or is there a BYOACer that could help? |

Well, I can do aluminum at 1/8" thick or less, but definitely no ferrous metals. :cheers: |
