Please post pics once you have them. By looking at their name, it is a water-jet cut method, correct?

I had a chassis laser cut (for the lightning of Ryan) which was made from 3mm thick 7075 aluminum and the price was only around 70 bucks!

That's a fantastic price too...especially given that your job was probably a lot more complicated than what I had done.

Here is a pic of the ESC mounting plate that I had wetjet cut for me. Overall I am satisfied...but the cuts weren't quite as smooth as I was expecting. Certainly for the price and for the application, it was a heck of a deal. When I get back home I will post a pic of the plate without the electronics mounted to it. BTW, I have an extra if anybody is interested in it.

Yes they use water to cut...which to my surprise doesn't come out as smooth as CNC. To some of you guys this may be of no surprise...but to me it was something new. I guess I just figured that the h20 would achieve a much cleaner cut...

Water jet cutters actually use a fine grit in the water for the cutting, the edges look like they were sandblasted.
