Thread: reccomendations for CNC router or laser cut plywood canterbury based

hey folks,
I have been given cut files for a draw setup and bed platform to suit my 80 series Landcruiser, looking to save a bit of wood cutting admin and have them either cnc routered or laser cut, likely 2 sheets of 18mm ply (happy to supply)
anyone got any reccomendations on who to contact ? even better if anyone actually has access to this type of machinery
thanks
Danny

cutting edge design

alas my CNC only cuts 1800x400.
I have my drawers CAD'd up currently. I do have a mate that is around 150 a sheet for cutting from memory. based in Ferrymead could be a little cheaper depending on file type and work needed

That's about the ballpark that I've got quotes. It's too expensive for the projects I had in mind; better off with the jigsaw. But for a lot of small parts or dimensionally critical parts could be ok

If you’re doing straight cuts grab a plunge saw and track. Will be cheaper then getting the sheets cnc cut.

Curved cuts and rebates better to get cnc cut

Not Canterbury based but if you stuck or cnc shop is asking too much, I have access assuming freight not overkill it.

Thanks guys I have a couple good leads to follow up, will make some enquiries today.
