Been using SCS for close to 2 years for my small business on the regular. The only 2 things i look forward to are plating, anodizing and powder coating for parts up to 32 inches, and an app for quick use. I love how the website is already styled like it were an app but its not the easiest to use on the phone.
The toss of the folder after the off-camera part hand off? Amazing. The dude telling the cameraman to not show the boss? Perfect. The anecdote about trying to use a harbor freight powder coater? Both relatable and you gotta get a dedicated oven in your garage/shop (but it still sucks). Way too good.
@@sendcutsend That's what I'm saying. The editorial use of editing is part of the excellence. Whoever is at the wheel creatively really knows what they're doing.
Sent my first order in a month ago. Was stunned how easy it was. Followed up with numerous orders since then. You guys couldn't make it easier. And you're right its often cheaper than i can buy raw material. Thx
I’ve designed and sent in the DXF for you all to cut, I have never been disappointed! I tell everyone in my hobby about you all and I know some have used you as well.
I was unaware that laser cutters used HRPO plates and not plain jane black mild steel. Since watching this video, I have added that material grade and surface finish to my CAD software database so I can specify that on my BOM. I will also need to follow up with my suppliers to see if this is actually their standard business practice.
So just to be clear, nesting/stacking/combining parts doesn’t really save any money, it’s just about how long it takes to cut? So total line length is the only thing you really have to consider? I had a project a while ago that had 9 similar-but-not-duplicate polycarbonate parts and I was really pleasantly surprised to find that combining them all into one file only changed the price by like $0.20 Love your service and love your prices! Please never change
@@aaronec2121 Yep! We handle all of that for you. We calculate our prices assuming that we’ll be able to nest everything together, usually with other customer’s parts too. We assume an ideal scrap rate and make sure that you’re not charged for excess waste 🫡
Any thoughts about adding tube laser capabilities? My company does a lot of stainless square tubes that end up in our machine shop to add holes, slots, and threads ($$$ and takes forever). You guys have the best pricing UX for sheet metal by far, and I'd love to have that same experience for tubing parts.
A question on those $29 aluminum parts: How do the extra cutting time costs versus extra material costs end up working out with those interior holes? Would it have been cheaper or more expensive if those parts were solid without the "lightening" holes?
In most cases, the less cutting we have to do, the less the part will cost. A simple square will be less expensive than a square with 30 holes in it. The square with the holes will use less material, but the cutting time is the biggest factor
@@ianschutt6242 we use fiber lasers, co2 lasers, CNC routers and waterjets depending on the material! You upload your design, it goes through our DFM system, (a mix of human and automated quality check) once good for the lasers, we nest the parts for optimal usage of the material sheet then it’s off to cutting! On our website under each material we’ll let you know the cutting method 👍🏼
I was needing a broken part remade in steel that was original made in cast aluminum. Am I able to send my part to get remade? Is that some thing you offer?
We don't offer reverse engineering...yet... but if you can get it into a template/cardboard cutout or a sketch we can make the CAD file for you. Check out sendcutsend.com/services/design-services
I've had some projects that I wanted SCS to knock out for me.......could never figure out what format of file to send to them out of Fusion 360, so I ended up just banging them out by hand.
We accept DXF or STEP file! Here's a video on 4 ways to export a DXF from Fusion. ruclips.net/video/Y1Yc9zHGZ6k/видео.htmlsi=chJWDy35HsS5Lvhn Feel free to reach out to our support team too if you need help 👍

Man, I love how open you guys are with prices.
What choice do they have? If you send something for them to do, you’re going to find out quickly anyway.

This was amazing. Great editing, great chemistry, great information. Everyone looking like they're actually having fun? Great advertising.

Lol at the boss shoes incident.
Imma check you guys out. Pricing sounds super legit

Nice! Entertaining and informative. Thanks
Would love to have your services available in the EU!
We're working on it!!

Excellent stuff. SCS is my favorite!
Can we send cardboard cut out for you to recreate or does it have to be a cad file?
Yes you can! It’s part of our design services, there’s an extra fee but check out SendCutSend.com/services/design-services to learn more.
I so wish there was a Sendcutsend in Europe. Anything similar is 5x the cost 😢
We’re working on it!!
Not sure if this is on your website or not, but what conversion coating/ washing/ prep do you use to prepare your aluminum parts for powder coat?
We currently sandblast before powder coating 👍
Thanks guys!....What is the cutting process(es)?

Great info
Is it hard to get parts sent to Canada?
@@MrShaneSunshine not at all! It’s the same lead times (parts leave our facility within 1-3 days for standard orders.) SendCutSend.com/canada
Good to know. Was about to ask the same thing.
There's an added flat shipping cost but it's very reasonable. It takes a couple days extra going through Canadian customs I've seen.
@@DWGarageProject yes we charge $19 flat fee and even though we have some great connections at customs, sometimes parts get held up there.
Hmm anywhere in the country. Free shipping to Hawaii?
Yep! Aloha!

Dxf file format is what I use for autodesk Inventor. Select the face and export as dxf.
