When constructing private structures or houses, steel beams have proven to be effective. As compared to wood, steel doesn’t warp or splinter. Thus, it can be secured safely during the construction.

Casting will probably be the cheapest option, there's lots of online CNC websites though they're usually rather expensive especially in steel.
I'm looking to get a particular shape machined, and I'm happy to pay for it, but I don't really know what I'm doing in this space (I'm an amateur blacksmith and this particular piece is outside my .

subcontracting cnc work
A good many customers are looking for one stop service and will gladly pay someone to shepherd their work through a series of processes. All the while knowing the "general contractor" is skimming 10 to 20% off the top along the way.
Gas over /gal can't be helping. There is a paper called The Parts Peddler from the east coast. Dedicated to roundy-round racing, I used to see guys come out with a neat gizmo every spring,run an add for the 'latest, greatest' and by fall same year, at least 1 other vendor had a lower priced copy or 'even MORE improved' version of same part/gizmo. I love CNC machining, and I would pay someone to let me do it. I have a couple of Dyna-Mite 2400's right now, and when WESTEC rolls around next month, I am going to buy either a Haas VF2 or a Sharp 2412.
Based on the on what our cost of machining is, as well as talking to our machine shop, you can easily get to a minimum of about /hr for a big expensive machine taking up lots of space and power. Guys with big routers, much higher end than the Shopbot, they tend to charge about 0/hr. Where you can make money is when you already have all the material and tooling needed on hand and snagging up easy parts as soon as they pop up on your job board which can be a time suck. I mostly use them as a back up during occasional slow weeks.

Often I'll charge by the piece; ya' know the kind; there's just no way I can charge my full shop rate on some jobs so I just take my best guess on what the piece is worth and go from there. My shop rate, including CNC time, is per hour. Sometimes I charge that, sometimes I don't.
