Damn, wish I had a water jet... I'd make all kinds of stuff

Look very good too, that's one heck of a clean edge for a water jet. I always thought they left kind of a rough edge on the cut?

Yeah, it's not terribly smooth, nothing a little 200 grit won't shine up. The roughness depends on how fast you cut; these were done pretty quick, but the material was thin.

Think you could do some other side work? I'm working on a couple things right now that sure would be easier to fabricate if the plates were already shaped (versus cutting them by hand).
