SendCutSend completely replaced my desire to deal with owning my own CNC plasma, it's great they've extended their services into Canada. While I'd use a CNC plasma a lot in my home shop, it's less fun handling large stocks of base material, having to deal with recycling scrap material, machine and table maintenance... fiddling with settings every time I'm changing materials, dealing with deburring and cleanup of the slag. The CNC plasma takes up a large footprint, and while it's in operation, it's a loud piece of kit that makes it impossible to film in the shop unless you're shooting b-roll of the unit. While you pay more (surprisingly not THAT much more) to get laser from SCS delivered to your door, you're circumventing a LOT of headache and can spend the money on other tools in the shop.

For the love of all that is holy thank you for showing your garage. It makes me not feel as bad for having stuff everywhere every so often. You see these KZfaq creators surgery's and its disgusting 🤣

Plasma table is definitely a want for garage, but it is definitely a big investment. Send cut send definitely seems like the next best thing.

Big win getting SendCutSend to come over from the dark side and actually ship to Canada! Congrats!

I’ve been using this method a lot lately. There are things that just made more sense to farm it out and it’s so easy in the digital age. Now back to the car. I think you and I are in a race to see who can build a car the slowest!

And... you've tagged evey channel I watch. Good on you for spreading the love.

I like how easily you talked yourself out of cleaning up 😎 Good to find out Send Cut Send will now ship up to us in the ice floes

Thanks for the video, great info! And thanks for the discount code!

Send cut send has changed the way I do all my fabrication

Awesome work! You have gotten through to SCS, and saving other Canadians 15%!

Great points made!

Another vote for SendCutSend. I've been using them for about a year, got about a dozen orders in so far and have been EXTREMELY happy. I'm CAD savvy so exporting a clean DXF is no trouble and I've never had a problem, plus they ship pretty fast. It's usually cheap enough for me to get a spare or two if I'm bending or fitting something in case I goof.

Send cut send to ottawa is so massively cheaper and easier than locally it's kinda nuts. Just order a set of hub stands for doing alignments

Thankyou for the shout out

Few thoughts: 1- Since you have the know-how, maybe the local guys would let you use their stuff (for a fee) from 5:01 to 5:15 PM, provided you do the g-code and whatnot? 2- Delivery from the US: there are PLENTY of package forwarding companies that will receive your packages in the US and ship them back to you, their markup is very reasonable and they do package consolidation too to save on shipping; 3- Sendcutsend should sponsor you. In fact, I just demanded that in an email to them.

Super happy with my Send-Cut-Send parts and new discount code means I need to design more parts!

not all heros wear capes, good work turning those guys around!

Good solution 👍

Lol, that is awesome. I'm glad that Send Cut Send came through in the end and made a solution just for those tinkerers north of the wall. Also, road rash on the elbows? That looks like it hurt like hell.

i got the idea. interesting !!!. i am short on space in the garage too!!!

thanks for the tip on doing things just off camera i will be using that trick 🤣

I've watched a quite a few if your videos and enjoy watching what you do. Don't usally comment but alot of us have problems with USD bought stuff. Seems like the big companies are usally the only one that like to ship to Canada the smaller or private companies it cost too much or hassle. I won't even go to the back yard guy selling the odd part. I had ordered a brake part same size as a wheel cylinder. $40 usd part + shipping, by the time I got here I was over $120 cad and that without paying duties. He landed going to BC and mailed it from there with more parts I needed and shipping was less then the part. BTW, most don't know but if you buy antique parts for a certain vehicle for restoration purposes (can not be universal or aftermarket) before sending it, make sure you send it as antique/restoration parts and your taxes and duties gets reduced or don't have to pay at all.

Send Cut Send is fantastic and anyone who says its too expensive has likely never tried to get it done locally. All of the hassle and embedded costs of time lost and effort wasted on problem orders is the same almost everywhere. Apply logistics and mass production to the mix and small orders aren't small anymore. Love that company.

SuperfastMatt... while you're sitting around sulking about missing speedweek... you should mention Throttle Stop Garage. You both are great and both of you deserve more subs.

Hi, found that smallish cnc mill can make a lot more parts than plasma, it is a bit longer work and setup time but it really helps to make great parts.

Sorry I am American and I never came back from my happy place because you sent me there and didn't call me back. Im a machinist/fabricator and am thinking about setting up shop out your door and then debating whether or not to sell to America.😅 Love your content and understand frustration just maybe not all of yours first hand. Thanks

Bigger....shed...sorted. Mate. What you get for about 30K, slab and all, is astounding. I've just invested in a 6 X 12 metre (20' X 40') shed and, although it's not here yet, will be the most amazing thing in my world. So much room to do whatever I need to do. And, yes. It's just for playing. Not for storing a lawnmower...or cars....just me and a lot of space. I only play with motorbikes, so it makes it SO much bigger, in the grand scheme of things. Once you have it, you have it. BTW. I love your channel. Good, honest stuff, well presented by 'a guy like the rest of us'. Love your work.

You're just such a craftsman. The car is going to be awesome. I think a plasma table would make sense for a business. I just can't see it making sense for personal use other than the convenience of having it done on your schedule. Like a couple others said, dealing with the related tasks such as deburring, cutting threads makes it more attractive to job it out.

Very similar situation in Australia.

I just finished watching the video by JD's Garage who sells $25 plans for a bolt-together plasma cutter. You buy and cut the tubing and steel brackets, do your own 3D printing of plastic parts, and if you have a plasma cutter, it averages $300-500USD for the whole build (which I usually spend around $80). Guess who just ordered plans? I already have a 54x54 CNC router, but moving the 3" thick table out of the way would be a bear and a half. Question about the stainless parts welded to steel bracket and frame: What about electrolysis? It's a real issue in rainy/snowy country. SENDCUTSEND sounds like a Godsend to most people, though.

Having been a CNC laser operator in my past there is a lot of cut offs and remnant pieces when cutting orders. You may want to check with your local shops or find someone in your vicinity and see if they may want to start their own plasma cutting business. I've known people that started that way and grew their own business. PS Mind your elbows...😁

I don't know if they ship to Canada but I prefer OSH Cut over Send-Cut-Send as I can upload 3D models directly and they pull the flat pattern from that. Saves me the trouble of exporting dxf and checking that it exported correctly and reformatting the lines etc.

I built my cnc plasma 4 x 8 table and I would do it again. Your are doing that company's homework. My table paid for itself in less than a year. I don't advertise. I incorporate my table in almost every job I do. It has increased my efficiency greatly. What is that company's disclosure on those files. This is big because they can use your design if they have the correct disclosure and lawyers. As I said you are doing their homework if you send them a dxf, svg or whatever. They are prob selling those custom tabs you designed under another company name. Did a large run and sold them relatively cheap to you in your eyes but making more on the other run.

I really been thinking about a crossfire. 3 grand for a nice middle size. Hard to beat. Even cheaper if you get the small crossfire.

I'm keen on importing an ArcDroid unit to Australia. I think these would cover 95% of anything I want to cut and hand cut the rest.

Everything going well with the parts? Even TX got bloody cold and I’ve been getting roof snow clearing videos like mad. Just making sure the furnace is still going and the Volvo is getting more love than my Riviera!

Even if you buy a low cost plasma table, you need power and very dry air. I think I spent 2x the plasma table on a good compressor, re-wiring the shop, and plumbing. If I didn't have it, I'd use send-cut-send. Had good luck with them in the past.

Superfast matt been levaing us hanging with the discount code… damn.

Get the small Langmuir table. I found mine new and unused in the Box for $800. Just add a plasma cutter and you're good to go. There are some very inexpensive plasma cutters that perform very well on this table. You seem like you would use a plasma table more than the average person and probably could have paid for it already with all the brackets I've seen in your video.

I live in Hawaii so I understand. There are companies that won't sell to me or if they do I get raped from UPS & FedEx. I just placed an order from a company for several small items, the freight cost to send the items to California was only $110. The same order having it sent directly to me here in Hawaii the UPS quoted cost came out to $525 UPS Ground $650 2nd Day Air that takes 4 days.

Get a Arcdroid or a Langmuir Crossfire you wont regret it !!!!

Who was the company you have used locally?

Send cut send my friend, if postal cost is not extraordnary.

Ahh the age old problem... Space. You might want to look at ArcDroid which solves, mostly, the space problem, but not the cost problem. And they're Canadian.

UPS/Fedex Ground both sucks moose oysters. They have hit me for duty and import for WAY over the original value soley based on "what they think its actually worth"

Send-cut-Send don't have a presence in the UK which is super (fast) annoying, and our local equivalent (fractory) doesn't seem to be anywhere near as cheap with significant setup costs.. sad times. So I spend hours ogling plasma tables that I, like you, could never fit in my garage even if I could afford them :)

I’m buying a plasma cnc table for my shop and I would cut your parts for you I’m in Ontario Canada

You definitely seem to suffer from a too small garage. Definitely not too much stuff. 😁

Enough with the threats about finishing the car already! 😉

Blame border customs - it's the same problem with Canadian companies shipping to the US...

Mpcnc an a non-hf plasma… $800

post shipping fee hate confirmed! top pet peev...

UPS. 3 letters that bring out all my 4-letter words.

You've stacks of space....just get rid of that old Volvo ....problem solved. But seriously seems to me that dealing with the US presents a business opportunity for someone wishing to become a forwarding broker or something like that.

Sorry, but I will use your garage pictures as defence every time somebody says mine is a mess

Shipping from LA to Detroit: $4.39. Shipping from Detroit to Windsor: $180 to NO. WTF is this crap. In the old days there were whole semi trucks full of weed coming from Windsor to Detroit for little more than the cost of fuel.

So the answer to .. "do I need a plasma CNC" .. is no.. I just need to annoy send-cut-send to the point where they will send parts to my neck of the Woods...

No you dont want a CNC plasma table. not enough usage, not enough ability. large space. What you want is a CNC router or mill. Both let you make 3d shapes, you can carve from aluminum... mill has smaller work area, but lets you do steel, and you can cut everything the plasma table does.

If you put the effort of finding a shop that would cut your parts for you into building a machine you would already be cutting. All you need is a computerized arm for your plasma. don't over complicate the process.

Don’t know if you’re still checking comments on this video, but have you seen this Volvo? (dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=xm3s0qqTEYA. Jay Leno featured a Volvo 1800 with carbon body built on a vintage car by the Volvo racing division.
