Thread: Looking for somewhere local to CNC marine ply

Not sure how accurate you want but a cheap jigsaw and a sander of some description would probably be the cheapest way.

And a 50mm holesaw with a cordless drill.

Hi Tony,

I live in Melbourne, so can't tell you anything about Perth companies. However, I'll just encourage you to get in contact with a local mob or two. I held off for a while on getting anything CNC'd, assuming it'd be super expensive. In the end though, I was quite surprised with how cheap it was.

I contacted a couple of local places, asked what format they wanted drawings in, got quotes, then went ahead. They provided the material in my case. Super easy, and for what I was doing, so cheap in comparison to my time to do the work.

Good luck!

once you find a place that can do the machining, providing a vector image of the shape required will make the exercise much less expensive.
The pictures you have posed are dimensioned drawings that would need to be reproduced without the dimensions either by yourself or the person doing the CNC machining. If the latter the bulk of the quoted cost will likely be associated with preparing the drawing to guide the cutter.

Welcome to the forum Tony.
