Re: Machining experts please advice.

1/8" is not acceptable. The whole premise that the raw material was off is not a valid claim. The CNC machining process is based on cutting a specific piece from raw material no matter how big the raw material is. Obviously you cant cut a 5" piece from 4" of raw material, but you can cut a 5" piece from a 6",7",20".30" you get the idea. I would not accept a piece that I was paying machining cost on to be 1/8" out. Heck, you can stamp bead lock rings out to better tolerances than 1/8"
