CNC Router

Pricing based on routing length and bore holes.

Routing

$1.60 + GST per lineal metre for 16mm panels. Proportional for other thicknesses — e.g. 25mm panel = $2.50/lm.

Boring

$1.60 + GST per 35mm hole. Proportional for other diameters.

CNC pricing is available via cabinetmaker.com.au for registered customers.

Edgebander

Metres are measured by the machine and include wastage. Panels must be straight and cut to finished size. Minimum panel length 100mm, board thickness 12–32mm.

Please read — edgebander instructions

The minimum panel length that can be edged along the length is 100mm with 50mm the minimum width. That is, the smallest panel that can be edged all round is 100mm square. Sometimes for example drawer fronts need to be edged as a larger panel and then sawn into individual drawer fronts before the horizontal edges are done. Hire charges from $25 apply for this machining. A setup and short run (except for cold starts) is from $30.

Board thickness can range from 12 to 32mm, premilling is not advised for panels thinner than 16mm or thicker than 32mm.

Panels MUST be straight. If necessary cut the board twice to ensure there is no spring in the edge of the board as this is essential for the edgestrip to be applied.

The minimum charge per session is $30 from a cold start for tapes that are in stock. A minimum charge (from $30) applies to all setups and tape changes.

Edgestrip can be supplied by us and this is often more economical for 1.0 and 2.0mm than buying it yourself.

It is best to cut your panels to the finished size as the edgebander is equipped with a premilling unit which will remove the thickness of the tape from the board before it is applied. Panels with laminate applied to the faces or plywood panels will NOT be premilled. Plywood substrates are not suitable to edgeband to. Please inform the operator before edging as to your premilling requirements. However, premilling is often not so successful across the grain on some veneered board. Our glue suppliers recommend priming timber edging before edgebanding.

Any mitres and hinge holes MUST be cut after the board is edged.

Customers are required to tail out for the operator. Facility Time is charged during edging. If the customer cannot tail out, an additional labour charge applies — see Other Pricing.

Once panels have left the premises, Wood N You is not responsible for any edging defects. Check the panels as they come out of the machine and report any problems to the operator immediately. No responsibility is taken for edging applied but not supplied by Wood N You.

Edgebanded panels are NOT suitable for areas in direct sunlight or hot enclosed rooms — the edgetape will fall off.

The metres charged are measured by the machine and include wastage trimmed off during application.

Safety & conditions

Obey staff instructions — if unsure, ask. Advise staff if anything does not appear as you think it should. Be safety conscious for yourself and others. Leave machinery and the working environment safe for the next person. Remember that while machining, the smaller the piece, the greater the chance of personal injury or damage. Use push sticks and position guards for maximum safety. Be aware of the danger of moving blades, cutters and drills. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear — no thongs or loose clothing.

All incoming materials are checked by staff — no asbestos, heavy metals, fibreglass, bamboo or dangerous goods. Appropriate behaviour for a workshop is required. Persons who appear to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol are not welcome. People under the age of 15 are not permitted in the workshop by law. Your material on the premises is at your risk.

All damage and breakages must be paid for. We endeavour to give fair notice but some prices are subject to change without notice. The management reserves the right to refuse entry to any person or to request any person to vacate the premises. Management's decision is final.
