Total inches would be about 67" for the cut distance. The steel is 1" thick carbon type thats in annealed state. I can pre taper the limbs so it gets thinner as it moves out if it is easier for the shop. This piece
unfortunately will eat anything i try and cut it with by hand and my torches/plasma cutter are not big enough to cut anything thicker then 1/2" on a severance cut.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>FYI, the cut can be a severance cut as long as i have enough material to grind to limits.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am also looking for someone that can put a drawing into CAD format so a waterjet or laser cutting machine can read it. Willing to front some money for the time. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks for the list time, Please respond to <A href="mailto:davidsbox01@yahoo.com">davidsbox01@yahoo.com</A> if you can help.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Ulrich</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <div> <HR SIZE=1> Stay in the know.
