Seeing what you're creating from the use of a waterjet table vs the usual cnc works is quite amazing! What's the ballpark $figure for such a tool?

An "OMAX" 55100 waterjet table retails for about 200K US$

The waterjet does a great job cutting "straight" gear teeth profiles , all the gears I have cut have been used "as is" after cutting on the table short of doing some filing, but if you needed a high precision gear it would be best to cut the gear blank slightly bigger and then use the proper gear cutter to finish it...

Thanks !!
