You'll find that this theory isn't always true. You can have all the CNC / Waterjet / Lasercut machining done to your robot, but if there's not a solid and sound design, it won't matter.
There are plenty of robots made every year with a band saw and a drill press that excel because their design is simple yet effective.
A lot of times it's easier to find a local company or university with the kinds of machinery mentioned in this thread. Do a bit of research and send out a few e-mails, or ask some other local FRC teams that have access to these capabilities. You'd be surprised at how willing people are to help you out.
