Need help! Looking for access to a CNC metal cutting machine
« on: August 03, 2013, 04:27:24 PM »
Just as the title says, I am looking for anyone who might have access to a metal cutting CNC machine. I've got parts dimensions and everything too, just need someone to pay to have these parts for a custom airsoft gun cut out. Thanks!

Using a site like this might help, first try in abs. It's cheaper and you can edit your design. It's not going to be cheap for a custom gun. But cool idea.

Haha. You have to remember, it takes several models to get it right  I hope it works. I have plans for a kmp9 with the p*. It's slow work. Hope it works haha

Cant wait to see what you makeO.o
I realize that while most people suck, there are still some genuine characters that exist out here. I'll show my appreciation by being genuine in return.
Love the sport.

Oh sorry I forgot to mention in the OP what I am making. It's going to be a M2HB machine gun.
