Hi all
whats the best method for cutting aluminum plate and getting a clean edge. I've tried water jet but the edge looks sand blasted (because it kind is) .
Saw some examples of a laser but the edge was rough with slag on bottom edge, bad laser cut??
Had some stainless cut on laser and the edge is great(see image..top is stainless bottom is aluminum water jet)
what about plasma cutting?
CNC router looks nice but some of my parts are small with lots of detail ...hold down might be a problem
thanks
