minus-squareSnAgCu [he/him, any]hexbear63·10 months agoI've used waterjet, CNC, and EDM parts. The waterjets typically give me ~100 micron accuracy, CNC ~20 micron and EDM ~10 micron. "All parts of the vehicle" link
minus-squareEgon [they/them]hexbear16·10 months agoYeah just cut out the body in waterjet, how hard can it be? Doesn't temperature affect precision within that range? Like when the parts cool down, they'll be unprecise. link
