Cutting Steel

[Steve Kelly]

Does anybody know where I can cut 1/8" steel sheets at Rice?

what precision do you need? would a router do it or do you need waterjet?

if you don't find resources on campus, you can always use a service like http://www.bigbluesaw.com/

naw I don't think either are available. but a router we could probably buy (dunno if we have room for another big work area but we could try to squeeze it in somewhere). a waterjet we will have to find somewhere.

but we need to establish what precision we need so that we can pick the right tool for the job. if we need 100 micron resolution then a router would be worthless; we'd need some kind of cnc.
