I have to move forward on this. I can barely keep up with orders for the product that I am making. I love the way my metal cutting bandsaw works. Set it up, turn it on and it does the work. Its not even CNC.
I am cutting out, then hot glueing parts to a template to rout out by hand, then welding the parts together having to insure squareness now. With the CNC approach, I have a design where I can cut the part all out of one small sheet and then fold and weld. Should be a temendous frustration saver and possibly time saver as well.
Its going forward.
The material is polycarbonate that I'm welding. Sounded like I was talking about steel when I reread my post.
