    Me again, looking for a business recommendation again.

    I need to find someone with a CNC router who can precisely machine a few holes in 120-odd polycarbonate boxes for me. I've approached one precision engineering company who said they could do it but weren't interested.

    Anyone know of a small engineering company with a CNC router that would be interested in taking this on? I can supply a CAD drawing to give a head start on setting up the CNC program.

    Would the likes of Murphy stainless steel or Jackson engineering have something like that?

    I dunno, aren't they more into heavy engineering? I'm looking more at precision engineering and custom fabrication. I'm also talking about plastics as opposed to steel.

    Comer in Corofin has a wide selection of tools for CNC, give them a call, http://www.graniteandmarble.ie/about-us.html

    CNC differs only in tolerances and tools to hand to snap on.
