Who has a CNC plasma that can handle 1" steel?

[bgaidan]

Looking for a shop private party with a CNC plasma that can cut 1" mild steel. Closer to Reidsville/Greensboro the better. Called around to a few shops and none have been able to do much over 5/8". Once place said they had a partner shop that could do it, but it's been like pulling teeth to get a quote or even response after I sent him the CAD files. Part size is approx. 22" x 7.5" - 2 pieces. I can supply the material.

Alternatively, if all else fails, I may be able to laminate two 1/2" pieces and weld them together, but that's less preferable.

Suggestions?

Don't discount someone with a waterjet, if you can find one.

If you can’t find a closer shop, I’d suggest calling Laser Bros in Graham. They have been great to work with on past orders and can cut that thick.

If you don't mind traveling across the line into Virginia there is a guy I use that should be able to do it.

I'll give them a shout. Their shop is only about 15 minutes from me. I knew they did fab, but wasn't thinking of them for this for some reason.

I can’t, but I know I can get it cut in Rocky Mount. I get 1.25” cut regularly.

If you send me the DXF I can find out details.

Their 3kw max was 3/4" steel but they got a 12kw last fall and their main page now lists max as 1.5" steel

When I was at the paper plant (tiny ass Italian lathe and a welder ), they made about anything we needed. Their shop manager, Mike Danford was excellent, but lost touch with him after 30 years...
