Quoting
CNC Quotes in 24-48 Hours
A real person reads your files and gets you a real number.
Send a 2D PDF drawing or a 3D STEP file and a real person will read it and send back a real quote (price, material, and lead time) usually within 24-48 hours. No portal to set up, no minimum order, and every part is inspected before it ships.

What “24-48 hours” actually means here
A person opens your model, reads your print, checks the material and quantities, and prices the job. The number you get is the number, not an instant algorithmic estimate that gets revised once a human finally looks at the file.
And when a job genuinely needs longer (an exotic material to source, a print that needs a conversation) you hear that within the same 24-48 hours, instead of silence while your deadline burns.
What to send for the fastest quote
The ideal package is a STEP model plus a PDF drawing, with material, quantity, and any date you’re working against. The quote form takes STEP, STP, STL, and SLDPRT models, PDF drawings, and ZIP bundles for multi-part jobs.
Quantity is worth a sentence of thought: ask for pricing at one quantity and that’s what you get; ask for 1, 10, and 25 and you see the whole curve in one quote.
What comes back
Price, material, and lead time (standard is 4-6 weeks, rush is 1-2 weeks) plus anything on the print worth flagging. If a tolerance or finish callout is quietly expensive, the quote says so and suggests the cheaper equivalent. That DFM feedback is included, not an add-on.
What slows a quote down, and what happens instead
The usual culprits: no material callout, a model with obvious precision fits but no drawing to define them, or two revisions in the same ZIP with no word on which is current. When something’s ambiguous you get a question, not a guess. A quote built on assumptions is how parts arrive wrong, and nobody here is interested in that.
Questions
Before you send a job.
01 Is the quote automated?
No, a person reads every file before a number exists. That’s slower than an instant estimate by a few hours and better than one by a wide margin: the quote reflects your actual print, including the parts of it an algorithm skips.
02 What if I only have a model and no drawing?
Often still quotable: many parts can be priced from the model alone. Critical fits and tolerances need a print to be meaningful; if you don’t have one, the team can build it as a quick CAD task.
03 Does a quote cost anything?
No. Quoting is free, DFM flags included, whether or not you order.
04 What makes a quote come back faster?
Material named, quantity stated, deadline flagged, and one current revision per part. That package usually quotes same-day or next-day.
05 What happens after I approve?
Approve by ACH, wire, or company check. POs welcome from established businesses. Your parts get made, inspected against your print, and shipped with tracking.
