    MotorBike Mike,

    That's the funniest signature tag I've seen yet...it actually made me laugh outloud.

    Reminded me of Vietnam where you could drink beer at a sidewalk stop and the Mamasan's would give you a blow job in the bushes when you went to take a leak.

    Ahhhh, the good old days.....

    Unless you are making a ****load of them, Laser cutting is probably not economical.

    Purchasing? As in, if you need some parts made? Yes.

    That's what the question is in reference too...

    It's "you're" and "equation" by the way.

    should have added water jet may be a more cost effective.We have had some parts cut within .005 tolerance.

    I can have them cut on a waterjet. Just need a hand drawing or dwg file and what your tolerences are. From one piece to 1000's. How close do you need them? If within .001" we have them shaped on the mill after the rough cut in waterjet.
