That's amazing! Even more amazing: $149 (some kind of currency) including shipping to North America - 2 day target UPS delivery. For that size parcel?!?

"Our art pieces are laser cut from 2mm thick steel, thus guaranteeing high quality."
2mm = 5/64"
That's rather thin. I imagine the finished piece weighs next to nothing.

2mm isteel s what I used to reinforce my subframe/cradle. It's quite thick and heavy.------------------ "Turbo Slug" - '87 Fiero GT. 3800 turbo. - The fastest Fiero in France! https://youtu.be/c4Cu7_2OgYc https://www.youtube.com/cha...1wZvWQlkYxTjivW_0XNg

2mm is "thick"? European millimetres must larger than millimetres elsewhere.

Cool. It doesn't have an engine so 2mm should be enough.
This could be also made with a 3Dprinter (in parts) or even a 3D pen...hmm
Also the metric system is 2,54 times better then the imperial system

That is cool, but I hope they are cutting out lots of smaller stuff in the large voids to avoid wasting a lot of metal. I can do similar art work pieces on my CNC plasma (and could fit the 30" one), but wouldn't want to waste that much metal. A 12 x 36 piece of 16ga mild steel is about $45.
2mm is 0.0787" which is thicker than 16ga that most people use for exhausts and signs, so I would not be that concerned with strength. The $149 version is the 30" (width) one, the 59" one is $319.
Both my kids are the artistic type and I have been trying to get them interested in using the CNC plasma for their art projects. The last round of birthdays I made some custom art pieces for my wife and kids.[This message has been edited by fieroguru (edited 09-22-2022).]

With metric being multiples of ten, I'd say the metric system is 10 times better then the archaic imperial system (but I understand your reasoning).
