well, the way it works at my school is that students are not allowed to use the machines in the AML (advanced manufacturing laboratory) so I need to go through the one guy who is certified to run the machine by making an appointment. It works out well because for each individual job I get pretty much as much time as I need.
this panel was only 9 minutes of cutting, but it took about 2.5 hours to get the drawing file corrected (finicky software) and get the path set out right. the auto path mode was giving us trouble so we had to manually define incuts and path it out one section at a time.
this job totaled out at a whopping $4.62 for the cost of the abrasive used in the cutting![]()
