[QUOTE="me2, post: 360505, member: 3825"] I've given up on getting parts cut by someone else for a reasonable cost. I'm not going to spend $60 to $110 for every piece I need cut, especially when they are as small and trivial as the parts I need. I am thus going to build a CNC plasma cutter and cut my own parts. I am sure it will get a ton of use and save me money in the long run. I hope to get a design for the CNC table together today and order the necessary parts before the weekend. While waiting for the parts to arrive, I am going to tear apart my engine and do the rods, frost plugs, etc. When the CNC parts come back I'll put together the table and then resume making the engine adapter plate and the exhaust manifold. Theoretically I could hand cut the adapter plate and exhaust manifold parts. I am very tempted to do that but a) I know that sooner or later I need a CNC plasma cutter and b) the quality of my hand cut parts would never match what a CNC cutter will do. I am off to research DIY CNC plasma cutters. [/QUOTE]
