Re: Waterjet/Laser cutters in-house?
Waterjets and lasers are AMAZING when you don't own it... Finding some place that will cut parts out on a jet or even laser for free isn't all that difficult and lead times are generally better than trying to outsource milling and turning jobs. Meanwhile a mill or a late are much cheaper to buy/own. Basically save up for a mill or lathe and find a sponsor for the 2D stuff.
