Thanks for the shout out Jon
It was actually water jet cut, which I think is better (but I'm biased haha) so if any of you guys have any crazy ideas we can cut 6" thick and up to 4'x8' through pretty much anything except diamond and tempered glass (wood, foam, rubber, steel, stainless, aluminum, titanium, inconel, etc).
I'm a full time student working at a machine shop programming and operating the water jet so this was mostly done on my own time (aka I'm cheap!). We get material at really good prices and I was lucky we had a scrap of aluminum that fit the dash perfectly. Our shop rate is reasonable so we're really good for those short production runs!
If any of you want to bounce ideas of me just shoot me a PM or e-mail me,
