Why do you have to spend six grand? Why can't you just get a HSS bit pin your polycarbonate to a aluminum scrap?

That's what I have done with a computerized Bridgeport.

I think, I don't know, it tore up the poly pretty bad. To be continued. We are getting into busy season so maybe next winter, play around.

If you use a slower speed bit it will do that. You got to make sure it's moving pretty quick. That's why you got to use aluminum only as your scrap plate

Interesting idea to cut poly, what bit are you using to cut. I have access to a router table but I've never been good with plastics. The mill on the other hand...

I can't afford a laser. What we are cutting is so easy anyway. My machine is mostly dusty now.

The lid...dun dun duuuuun.

I am fighting this one tooth and nail. In texts and email before and after the 3D models I asked for a refund. I was misled on what was happening and they should have just cut ties with me on day six when I asked for the refund before any work was done. They would rather someone blast them and be upset then just give me back my money. This is REALLY telling ya'll. I knew I was in REAL trouble when all these models came in and not one of them was what we went over. Hey if you guys, 5, 2,1 of ya read this, give me back my money. I have had a few facebook friends and I think two people here state they were going to go with someone else because of my interaction. So at this point it probably cost them some money when they could have just gave me my money back when I first asked.

As the amazing and talented Rihanna once said, B* betta have my money!

It would appear they are pretending to not notice my multiple requests for a refund. At this point in time, even though I have been very vocal about not moving forward and actually begging for a refund, out $440. I would really like at least some of my money back. They are adamant about keeping the 30% and at this point I don't care anymore. Please, give me my money back toplids. Pretty please, with a freaking cherry on top.

Hellow toplids. I am still requesting a refund. I would like to not move forward with the lids as I have said in text and emails. Don't make me call your mom. You have $450 of my doll hairs.
