[QUOTE="Val, post: 1554469, member: 35728"] I can't estimate the exact number but I'm looking at a couple of templates a month, as there are many projects/jigs I would like to do that would be done much more easily with templates. I've been trying to do intricate templates by myself with bandsaw and bobbin/disc sander, but "matching" templates (something similar to inlays, for example) where two templates need to fit perfectly with no gaps at all are quite difficult to make by hand - I would rather spend my time working the wood. I had a look around for CNC services in my area, but there's not much in Belfast and the prices are quite high. If for a simple template cut I have to pay 20 quid, I'd rather spend £450 for a laser machine that will last me a couple of years. For other reasons I already have ducting and a ventilation system in my workshop, so the laser cutter was kind of an easy choice. [/QUOTE]
