WORK WITH US

Creating the design

We need your artwork in the file format of open vector SVG with a JPG reference for cutting or JPG format for etching. (SVG files need to be SVG type not Adobe type, and all objects need to be converted into paths not just masked) Please reference the size.

Our bed size is 1300x900mm and generally this is the maximum size of the largest single piece you want cut.

Please send us details of the work you would like done, and we will respond as soon as we can.
In order to quote accurately we usually require:
  • Artwork in SVG/JPG/DXF
  • JPG screenshot to compare and make sure what we are seeing matches what you are seeing.
  • Type of material required
  • Material Thickness
  • Size
  • Delivery date

We only do finishing work like sanding, painting and assembly on special request and for bigger projects.

Selecting the material

We have a wide range of materials that can be used on our machines ( except for aluminum and stainless steel) and it always depends on what a person wants when it comes to choosing the right one.

Sometimes it happens to just have an idea of what you want and not know how to get it done or not have a clue on the type of material that you want, if that is the case then you can got on to our material slide to check out the types of materials that we use and also go to our laser slide to see products that we have done for clients before.

Alternatively you are more than welcome to come to our space so that you can get to see the cool stuff we get to do everyday and get someone from our amazing team to help you figure out how you can get what you want.

Prices

We charge R550/hour for design time where required or requested, And charge a minimum of R250 for design where your files are not in a usable format (overlapping lines, paths not closed, text not converted to curves etc)
We charge per minute of cutting time @R8, so the thinner/softer the material the quicker the cutting time.
Our turnaround times for simple laser cutting jobs less than R3000 is 3-5 days. Turn around time for special projects is generally 1-4 weeks depending on complexity. We do offer an express service where you pay an extra 50% to jump the queue, where we can deliver same day or next day depending on the volume of your job and our capacity.
