I have two sheets of 1075 at my laser shop. If anyone wants to piggyback on my order, I can offer competitive pricing on cut blanks with an ETA of mid July. I will place my order on June 28, so your deadline is June 27. Thank you!

3/16" THICK:

PRICING INFO:

3/16" THICK:
$10 each for size up to 1.5 x 11.0" with up to 5 holes
$13 each for size up to 2.0 x 15.0" with up to 5 holes

1/4" THICK:
$13 each for size up to 1.5 x 11.0" with up to 5 holes
$16 each for size up to 2.0 x 15.0" with up to 5 holes

Minimum $50 per thickness please. These prices include steel and laser cutting only. Prices do not include design, shipping, or any other process or service.​


DETAILS:

• My email is info (at) tempercraft (dot) com
• Inquire via email for pricing on patters that don't fit the above sizes, or to request price matching.
• You must provide a clean CAD or vector file of your cut patterns composed of lines and arcs only (no splines or ellipses). I can offer this service for a fee, but you may find someone to do it for free/cheap elsewhere, such as https://www.reddit.com/r/cad. Alternatively, you can choose from a small library of CAD designs I have. Email to inquire.
• All areas of your design must have a minimum interior radius of half the steel thickness (applies to holes, cutouts, indents, etc only).
• Assume blanks will be warped.
• Assume holes will not be perfectly round - either omit them from your design or draw them undersized if critical.
• Laser cut edges/holes will be rock hard. You will need to anneal or stress relieve to machine with non-carbide tooling.
• Email to request a cut sample.
• There is an unavoidable loss rate on the laser. If I short you (i.e. you order 11 pieces but I ship 10), I will refund a prorated dollar amount.
• I can also offer in-house tumbling. Email to inquire.
• In the future, I can do this with 1095 if anyone is interested in higher carbon. Let me know.
• I will set up payment options on my website and can accept PayPal or credit cards there.​


SHIPPING:

• Items that can fit in a USPS flat-rate box (13" long) will ship for $15.
• Otherwise I will quote UPS ground.​



Thank you!
