Hello, sorry for interupting this thread but I have a question related to the last few posts. I am currently planning to have a laser cut weapon for my bettleweight robot for the first time. The thickness is 12mm and there are 4mm holes designed in it. Is it possible to manufacture or I will need to redesign the shape similar to Jalapeno's weapon?
Always oversize the holes a bit for bolts (like 4.2mm for 4mm bolts), except where you need a pressfit and work afterwards by hand what's too tight. If Schnerf remembered correctly, for 12mm thickness the smallest diameter to laser would be 9,6mm, which is a lot more than your 4mm holes. I'd shoot a question at whoever you want to ask to do it, but prepare to make is similar to Jalapeno.
