Urgent help required!

ok so basically me and a few friends are doing a competition and I wanted to build a prototype of our idea. in order to do that i actually need to etch out some grooves into ceramic tiles and i thought getting someone to etch the tiles with a waterjet could work but im not sure if it can. the grooves themselves would be like 1.5mm wide and around 2-2.2mm deep. the dimensions of the tiles are 12 inch x 12 inch x 5mm. ive attached a photo of my sketch on fusion 360 cause i read that i'll need to send vendors a dxf file. so what do you guys think, will this be possible or will ceramic be too brittle and break under the waterjet? submitted by /u/ComplaintNo2430 [link] [comments]
