    Request For Quote- I need 200 maybe more.

    Nasty nasty little part. REALLY expensive. You should consider die casting or moulding (depending on material)

    Request For Quote- Qty 2, square shaft, tight tolerances

    It is surprising how many people do not see the obvious. It needs more mass to be worked to your specs and remain stable.

    You need more mass. Make it out of solid stock.

    Request For Quote- Large frame/plate

    I don't see how the frame will stay flat. In my experience stress will change it every time temp and humidity changes. Not trying to be an ass - I was going to (want to) quote this job until I saw the .005// on the HSS frame. This design will be VERY expensive. Maybe I can help next time.

    Chariot Axle - Turned down and threaded

    I am in Stratford. If that is close enough. Do you have a nut to test the thread with?

    Request For Quote- 1-3 pcs T6 aluminum

    The last job I bid on here (that was local to me). Was made 1000 miles for less than 25% of what I quoted. I expect this to be the same. We are really busy, and even if we weren't, I won't work for $15/hour either. It is a buyers market, for those willing to shop worldwide. I hope you get good...

    Request For Quote- Need 1 RH and 1 LH of attached parts

    Biggest issues are the .030 and the.125 thicknesses. Flatness is not much of an issue because it will pull flat when screwed onto the surface. Anyway Modeling and prints (SolidWorks) to be done in advance and require signed approval $640 1 RH & 1 LH part Anodized Black $7292 Prices in Canadian...

    RFQ SS 40 taper spindle?

    Yes that is right. Steel will need to be either hardened or chromed as well. The fact that it is SS is only a VERY small portion of the cost, just that 304 is not hardenable. The big cost is the precision required for perfect bearing and toolshank fit as well as being balanced. Remember...

    RFQ SS 40 taper spindle?

    You will need to have the bearing and taper surface hard. Using 304 leaves no choice but to chrome them. Be about $4g (inner spindle only)

    Request For Quote- RFQ - two-part support

    That is fine for the through piece but won't work on the blind piece. Just mush the material into the bottom

    Request For Quote- CNC Punch & Bend

    Either way standard sheet is 3003 and 5052 is not cost effective. 14 gauge sheet will typically measure .074 (the mills always manufacture to undersize tolerance to pinch the pennies)

    Quick Quote Needed Two small Alum parts, 1 set now, more later

    Again - I have to strongly agree with Matt. I have some jade colour for sure ;-) - this is VERY familier but it has also made some great relations with people who realize what it is worth and I now do all their work. I was kinda thinking this too. Around here we typically see customers who...

    Yup For $90 I wouldn't have got far enough along in the project to even turn on the VMC. It seems you have made a nice part Fokusco. You have a great learning curve.
