      Can the CNC cut out the edge pieces now or do we have to do that ourselves?

    • @therentalguy
      @therentalguy  Рік тому

      It wouldn’t be practical for a cnc machine to cut the angles on the outer pieces. You’ll have to use a 12” compound mitre saw and a jig to hit the angles. Or if you want the sides we have them included in our metal listing.
      Here is a video that goes over the process of the sides in wood 👉🏻 ua-cam.com/video/bvsqvOZRAAA/v-deo.html

      Hey, my business partner @trbvlogs had our machine custom built so there is no brand name. If you don’t already own a machine it can be a heavy investment for just one alphabet. My recommendation is to contract the work out to a cnc business to make the cuts for you.

    Besides the CNC outsourcing cost, how much do you think it would cost for one letter in materials only?

    • @therentalguy
      @therentalguy  2 роки тому +1

      The less letters you do the more expensive.
      On average you get 4 letters to a 4ftx8ft 1/2in thick sheet of pine plywood. This is for the 3ft letters. I never like to say prices because the prices very from time to time / region to region.
