Waterjet would be a no no for me, and well Plasma is not out of the question but the finish is not great when I use mine by hand, and I suspect although better with CNC its not that great either although I'm not Certain of that. And laser, well if I could have a laser that would cut 2mm metal of any kind I would jump at that but I understand the lasers cost a packet...
