pretty cool but 10 of each is going to be tough since most will want one or two of their personal truck .

100 wouldnt be bad at all for one imo. i have had a few things cut on a water jet similar. i saw what they had to do in order to draw up the design and time consuming for sure. wish i had one of those machines , endless possibilites.

Oh yeah, that's what I meant. I should clarify, when I am saying 10 at a time, I meant 10 different cut outs. Not the same. I am definately not getting rich at these prices, your right, it can be time consuming for sure.


Another idea that I would like to do is tig welded aluminum engine covers

Nice work man! Where do you do this work? How thick of steel can you cut? I might have a couple things for you to look at to see if you can make them. Vince

Thanks Vince, I work out of my parents engine shop. I can cut many different materials and thicknesses, from bathroom tile cut outs, to 9" thick steel! Everything I have posted here is 16ga material. The sign is stainless steel, the cut outs are HR steel.
