looking for some input, i have the opportunity to buy a new Bailiegh Industrial CNC plasma cutting table.... what i need is to know who would have a need or want for custom cut brackets, tabs, mounts, or what ever you need cut that is flat plate. just want to put some feelers out for the market before i invest a large chunk of change in a machine. and go........

It sounds like a cool item to have but a big price tag . It would for sure make every item professional looking with endless hours of shaping and grinding . How large is the table ?

I'm still old skool and do shit by hand, but if you market a tool like that correctly, you'll make money. If i was able to afford something like that, i would look at making gussets and selling them on craigslist and ebay. I would make spider web's, rat's, and stuff like that. Heck you  can even do fish plates with designs in them and sell em to people who want to add a little more character to their rides......I have a friend here that does 4x4's here in cheyenne, he has a smaller table like that and everytime i am in his shop, he is making something with his set up.......

I have a 4x4 plasma cam. I've had it for close to ten years and love it. Any cnc is worth it. Baligh is top notch stuff.
