Default CNC Work

I need some CNC work done. I need all my brackets cut for my 4 link and shocks and watts link. I have autocad software so everything is already done I just need to email them to someone and give them some money and they send me some parts. Anybody know of a shop that does good work or can anybody here do this? If you can PM me or email me and I'll send you a couple of designs I have finished and you can give me a quote.

Thanks,
Trey

Yea I def have to have some custom brackets or make do with some universal ones. I have to put everything in between the frame rails for tire clearance and still have to have room for watts link stuff.

Just print up the dimensioned parts and take them to any machine shop. You dont need a CNC machine to create most parts, and with times as tough as they are you can shop around and find a shop that needs the work and will work with you on price.

Im assuming they are just 2d parts. If so you can contact any local laser cutter or waterjet facility and have them cut out for you.

I can't, deployed till april and need to have them waiting on me when I get back. Have a show to be at in July and need to completely build and tune/work the bugs out before then.

Some of them are 3d type stuff, but I could probably break them down to 2d and then weld them up later.

If you break them down to 2d you will save yourself a big chunk of change.
You can weld them up and sand then smooth and they will look great.

If you want I can help you. Just let me know.

Sure, this is what I've got so far. Top and bottom shock mounts, along with rear 4 link mounts, next up is watts link stuff.

From those images, I would make them 2d flat stock and have them laser cut.
