I need some sheet metal cut (I tried by hand and it was ugly), but the prices I've seen online seem insanely high. I don't think I need any kind of CNC or water jet work, just some simple cuts completed for a guy who lives in an apartment with no metal working tools. I've got detailed drawings completed and could CAD them up as well.
Is there a site out there that can serve my simple needs? If I call up some local shops what should I expect to pay? Thanks for any help and I apologize if this isn't the proper spot for this post.
Specifics below:
0.5 mm thich aluminum
two identical 2.5"x4" sheets
3 straight cuts on each
a semi circle cut out on each.
Metal cutting - oxyfuel cutting, plasma cutting, machining, grinding, and other preparatory work.
