What Is CNC Milling?
CNC milling is a way to cut metal and plastic into exact shapes. A computer controls spinning tools that remove material from a solid block. This makes your part match your design file perfectly. It's one of the most common ways to make custom parts. Everett teams use our CNC milling for brackets, enclosures, housings, and custom fixtures.
We Fixture Your Blank
A block of metal or plastic is clamped onto the mill table in a vise or custom fixture.
Spinning Cutters Remove Material
Tools move along X, Y, and Z axes to carve pockets, slots, and surfaces layer by layer.
Your Part Comes Off the Table
We deburr, inspect, and measure every feature before shipping.
Built for Milling Projects
From simple brackets to complex 5-axis contours — one shop handles it all with precision and speed.

3-Axis Milling
Flat surfaces, pockets, slots, and drilled holes. Works great for brackets, mounting plates, enclosures, and any part with features on one side.
Most common4-Axis Milling
Parts that need cuts on multiple sides without removing them from the machine. Faster delivery and lower cost for angled or wrapped features.
Multi-side access5-Axis Milling
Complex curves, undercuts, and sculpted surfaces. Our 5-axis machines cut from almost any angle. Fewer setups, tighter tolerances.

What Engineers Say About
Working With RivCut
Real reviews from real engineers. Every project matters — including yours in Everett.
We went through two shops before finding RivCut. Night and day difference. Parts come in right. Communication is clear. They held ±0.002" on a titanium bracket that two other shops couldn’t get right.
Aerospace PartsThey caught a tolerance issue in our drawing before production started. That saved us a full revision cycle and three weeks of delays. You don’t find that kind of attention to detail at most shops.
Medical DeviceWe needed fast turnaround on 5-axis parts for a new enclosure. RivCut delivered in 6 days. Quality was excellent. These guys move fast without cutting corners.
