Digicut CNC service
Times running out to get all the news out before close of play,work is play?
Those of you who have kept tabs with us and our progress this past year will have noticed a new name crop up on our web pages 'DIGICUT' this came out of a joint venture between Janet Mc Bride and Nigel Ormond,they both took a rather large leap,bought their own CNC machine and started business themselves,this is no small venture or indeed machine,the table bed of which is a full sized 4mtrs x 2.1mtrs,so just about any sheet material will fit the bed.
CNC? what do those letters mean,we see them writen and used all the time,try
'Computerized Numerical Control ',what it in turn means is, that once your design is down and on file,it can be retrieved at any future time and simply recut,or changed to suit what ever design progress may have been made since conception, if no changes are made,then each new unit cut will always be the exact copy of what came before. For this reason any boat that came from the same CNC shop files,will always be the same as the others,this in itself makes for a very inexpensive way of creating a 'One Design Class' boat and without the need for pages of measurement rules either!
The new company is fully writen up and a stand alone team,the members moved their machine from the CKD Boats cc work shops some months back and can now be found at the following address and contact numbers:
Unit 20a, Heron Park,Kommetiie,Cape Town. phone and fax number +27 21 7855892 or on the Cell number 082 554448
Contact them direct for all none boat design work,such as shop and office works,all other can come direct to +27 21 510 7206 and http://www.ckdboats.com/ as normal.
