Nice :thumbup: , Im keen to cut my own rotors with our waterjet cutters. Where you guys based?

 

i'm based in germiston.

yeah was thinking of doing rotors... but aren't rotors 1.8 thick? suppose 2mm would work.

want to do a kuma sutra designed rotor lol

we should swap designs

We have a factory in Germiston, not sure if its ok to laser cut a rotor becasue of the heat distribution generated on the metal.

Looks very nice

 

Long handles on the tool - lots of leverage

 

Watch out - the BB cups do not require much tightening

 

Will help with a BB which is very tightly done previously

it should be fine if one is clever about the cutting.. i.e water assisted laser cutting.

as long as the material remains flat it should be fine.

unforetunetly i don't have access to a waterjet.. only a punch and laser

what company you work for?.

they actually not that long. tip to tip 270mm.

but the twin handles allows you to position it nicely over the cups. so it has a less of a tendancy to fly off the one side for thoses of us that cant hold a tool straight and apply force..;)
