RE: wire eroding

I guess your asking about electrical discharge machining (EDM).

The cost in electricity depends on what you are cutting and how fast.

Wire is different sizes and costs.  

Do a google on EDM cutting.  Call a local dealer with the material, thickness, speed and accuracy and they should get you in the ballpark quick.
