Should have read all the thread before I responded to your earlier post. Was the company
Ingersol-Rand?

You can cut steel with plain water, but it's very slow. I haven't kept up
but I think that all of the commercial units designed for cutting metal now
use abrasive grit. Still, the ability to cut with plain water is a read
head-shaker, IMO.

Well there is that Grand Canyon

Seriously, One of the apps I had was profiling low density fiberglass headliner shells.
The waterjet nexts needed periodic repair (welding), cut the same outline 50,000 times,
you will cut though the deflectors in places.
