Laser or Waterjet cutting.

[SteveR3]

I'm waiting for quotes from a Waterjetter in Plymouth and a Laser cutter near Taunton - but does anyone know of any in the Exeter area?

Will be cutting [& bending] 3mm mild steel plate, 3 component drawings all done and 1,000's off needed.

You wanna buy one? or for someone to do the work?
We got a plasma cutter for sale at work, dunno how much tho

Have you tried Stonemans at Willand? I know they do sheet metal fabrication/bending .....

[SteveR3]

Not buying Chris, in need of plate cutting etc.

Cheer's Moose, I'll contact Stonemans tomorrow and check...

Which firm in Plymouth have you tried? I've had a couple of bits done (admittedly on the "QT") at Laser Industries in Saltash, who will certainly be able to do what you want ....... I don't think they're particularly cheap though ......

There is Kenex Engineering in Exeter we use them for work at Met Office

I've emailed Stonemans ;) keeping tolerences up to keep costs down at this stage - don't want to pass too much on & frighten customers.

The 10mm thick (ally) suspension links welded onto my swingarm were water cut ....... and they needed quite a bit of tidying as the cuts were rough - but they were done ten years ago by someone new to watercutting. Technology has moved them on since then.

The 6mm thick stainless flanges on my exhaust link pipes were laser cut, and the finish was good enough to just need a light polish.
