For
CNC plasma shops estimating cutting jobs
Worth noticing
The quote breakdown separates material, machine time, consumables, gas, deburring, and setup fees.

Field notes

The form distinguishes hobbyist, medium-duty, and industrial use, and includes material choices such as A36 carbon steel, 304 stainless, and 6061-T6 aluminum. It calculates hole length from diameter and count, while allowing a manual cut-length or pierce override. The displayed example breaks out material, run time, consumables, gas, deburring, and setup fee; the page does not explain how its underlying assumptions are validated.
