Re: Laser or similar cutting
I would go for the waterjet cutting.
I have found that laser cutting causes a little defect in the cutting line where the cut begins. This is caused by the laser heating the material prior to cutting.

Re: Laser or similar cutting
To the guys in the know, in your past experience,do these cutting shops have minimum order/material quantities, IE, will they cut say, 5 badges for me?
Thanks
