Lovely little CNC's

[tae]

I just met a man who works in a shop full of CNC machines with a anodizing shop next door. :rolleyes:
What is the going rate for that type of work? Im going to be speaking with them next week and thought if anyone else is interested, Ill post info here.

I have done work in the past at $75/hr for cad/cam, and $25/hr machine time. + tooling as needed.

I have seen machine rates go for $50 - $90/hr. all depends on the part, quantity, and what they are capable of.

Most shops have minimums, but talk to them and am I am sure they will work with you. Taking them out for beers works sometimes too. :) :)

Thanks Nicad :D
Ill keep any info posted to give me something to do.

Nicad, Id like to see the fruits of your creativity. Do you have pics anywhere?

[peewee]

I used to get cheap engine work done at a local shop by showing up just before closing with a case of beer. :argh:

sorry for thread jacking, but i saw nicad had already posted and ive been wanting to ask him this for awhile....I have a silver cord2 body with a no-rise ccm feedneck, now i was wondering, what do you think would be a good price to sell this for? since you are the creator of them and all.(i havnt seen them in the buy/sell forums for awhile and your site doesnt have a price for me to gauge it off)

They are $225 new
+ $25 if it is anodized.
+ $28 for the feedneck (I think?)

used price? I have no idea.

Thing is, there might not be any more made, depending on if AGD gets more Slugs made.
There were only 31 of them made.

thanks nicad...wow when i bought this mag i had no idea i had one of 31. is there any way for me to tell what number i have?

[nicad]

if you remove the body and look at the bottom of it between the bolt stud and the sear slot there should be a number 0xx scratched in it.

Tom K. has # 001. :)

So thats basically it on all of the Deadlywind mag bodies until AGD makes more slugs?

[tae]

How many of those bodies are out there?

[BigEvil]

No, not yet.

There are still Karta bodies available at www.themagsmith.com , as well as Slug bodies waiting to be machined for those folks that want a Deadlywind mag body.

Glad to hear it. I'm planning on building my 3rd emag... but I put it off until those TAG boards show up.
