🛠️ IndyMill Bare Steel Plates Kit – Ready to Cut
This kit contains 11 custom-cut steel plates designed for the IndyMill CNC machine.
- Z-axis rail supports: 8 mm thick
- All other plates: 6 mm thick
- Finish: Bare steel (no coating, no tapping)
- Details: Precisely cut and ready for your own finishing
This option is perfect if you want to handle tapping, coating, or painting yourself, while still skipping the hardest part: finding a workshop that will cut all 11 plates to spec.
If you prefer plates that are already powder-coated and tapped, check out our Painted & Tapped Plates Kit.
🤔 Why not source the plates yourself?
Of course, you could try to order the cutting yourself from a metal service — but in practice, it’s often a slow and expensive process for hobbyists. Ordering in low quantities is expensive and slow – big orders are prioritized.

Hi Nikodem,
Sorry it took me so long to respond to your review request!. These parts were/are fantastic! I ended up spraying them with a rust inhibiting black glossy paint and they look amazing! Tapping the holes was a little bit of drama, but all worked out in the end. I have used the mill successfully in a number of little projects and experiments, and I even lengthed the Y axis an additional 200mm so I can mill guitar body templates and guitar neck profiles. I love this mill and all the work you did to make this happen!!!.

T Seek (verified owner) –
Parts arrived quickly and without blemish. These steel plates have made a rigid build that would be hard to match without custom machined parts for much more.
