We often hear that designing parts for waterjet cutting or laser cutting is too limiting because the cutting tool always cuts all the way through a sheet of material. In truth, any tool you use has its limitations and one advantage of waterjet cutting is that the limitations are easy to understand. We've created a series of articles on the Big Blue Saw website that shows you how to work within the limitations of waterjet cutting to create larger assemblies of parts and get closer to making the designs in your head into real metal or plastic parts.

Our customers use waterjet cutting for a huge variety of projects: brackets, control panels, enclosures, motor mounts, battery boxes, and much more. Waterjet cutting is ideal for working with aircraft alloys like aluminum 6061 and 5052, as well as chrome-moly steel. Read more on our website on how you can design parts for waterjet cutting.

We offer immediate quotes with our online ordering system. Upload your design today to get started.
