cncd bars?

[Mark Abramsky]

this might sound stupid but is it possible to cnc bars.. idk anything about cncing so yeaa

 

[Riley Hughes]

cnc?

 

[Steezeman]

I'm sure you could, it would probably be really expensive though.

 

[Grahamk]

I've heard people say about how they want to cnc the cross bar, so its thicker near the middle and thinner at the edges - strong and light

 

[Jamie N]

hella expensive

 

[Zaηe]

whats cnc?
is it like curving it in tha middle?

 

[Rex728]

what is cnc??

 

[Grahamk]

Computer numerical code
Machines being told what to cut
French ID forks, district clamps, tilt pegs etc. are all cnc'd

 

[Steezeman]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but something that's CNC'd is pretty much cut from one solid block of metal.

 

[chester]

there would be a lot of production waste

Correct me if I'm wrong, but something that's CNC'd is pretty much cut from one solid block of metal.

I think you can cnc tubes and whatnot
Actually I think they use CNC to cut square holes in decks for the wheels and stuff.

 

[Colsstars17]

Seems like its not worth it to me

 

[sebharris]

^^^^
agreed
I dont think its worth it because it would be so expensive, but if you can afford it then do it, it would look and feel sweet I reckon.

 

[Mitch Weiman]

lots of $$$$

 

[CTRider]

There different types of cnc machines based on the axises they can machine on. Some can only do flat cuts and holes and such in metal while some can make complete parts from a block of aluminum. You also have cnc laser cutters, water jets, etc.

 

[Tom Cirbee]

ya its like watching the machines in a pet store make dog tags..

 

[alexanderespinoza]

i thimk it would be cheaper to pour one pieces than cnc them

 

[Billie Rainbow]

yeah forging sounds better imo, its stronger but you would wanna sell bulk of them otherwise pointless

 

[conordavidson]

It's absolutely not worth it at all. It would costs hundreds of dollars and you wouldn't see much of a strength increase. You'd also be wasting so much material and time, it's just stupid.

I once came across some aluuminium (aluminium) bars with a cnc crossbar with 25mm inside reo for like 50aud, I wish i had bought them
