The height of this custom steel number is 24 inches or 2ft and it have some serious heft and weight to it, as a house number sign should!
CNCROi.com isn’t limited to numbers, here’s a Star Trek Bat’leth I made just for fun at the shop a while back using the same sheet of material as this job was cut on.

Plasma cutting thin hot rolled mild steel like this (CNCROi.com can cut up to an inch and a half thick) really makes me appreciate just how awesome it is to have this machine in the shop, I’ve manually cut steel and just seeing the power and grace of my machine moving really impresses me to no end over the alternatives.
Compared to other technologies like waterjet, the plasma cuts through this at an incredible speed, the precision is the same as other CNC machines I have in the shop but the sheer capability of easily cutting through quarter inch hot rolled is amazing.
I’m not only a fabricator but also a customer, I made my own custom steel number sign.

Of course, CNCROi.com can cut more than the custom steel number 1 with our machine, any mix of alphanumerics works for us, as well as any font and sizing… you want a custom steel number 8 that’s 8ft tall out of half inch stainless steel? No problem!
CNCROi.com can make custom house numbers using live edge wood too.

The sparks never get old with this machine, although this was a fast cut for our custom steel number sign, using mild steel is a very cost effective alternative to doing the same using stainless steel.
Of course, if you wanted a custom house number sign cut out of half inch Corian, half inch Black Walnut or half inch acrylic, we’d use a different machine in the CNCROi.com shop but we can do that just as easily as this custom steel number.
Whether you want custom house numbers out of Pine or Walnut, or whatever species you want, CNCROi.com can make them.

What I enjoy most about metal cutting and welding is the sparks and the light it generates, it’s an intense flash of UV coming from this machine’s plasma arc and the sparks go flying everywhere.
With CNCROi.com‘s design through fabrication approach, your possibilities are endless when it comes to custom production of whatever you need, regardless of material or location as we ship right to your door once the job is done.
House numbers out of Cedar look amazing and smell even better, that’s the power of having multiple machines in the shop.

The laser sights I installed on my CNC plasma cutter really make jobs like this fun and easy, I really enjoy being able to cut metal so effortlessly for clients across North America at CNCROi.com.
After CNC plasma cutting this custom steel number one, the next step is angle grinding the surface to produce a nice clean surface, but in this case, the customer will be doing the finishing after the angle grinding.
