For best results, hole diameters should generally be larger than the material thickness. Extremely small holes may affect accuracy and cutting efficiency. Hole Size Recommendations
Unnecessary small details, sharp transitions, and excessive contours can increase cutting time and cost. Simplified geometry often improves manufacturability without affecting functionality. Simplify Complex Geometry
Avoid designing features that are smaller than the material thickness whenever possible. Larger features improve cutting accuracy and edge quality Minimum Feature Size
When nesting multiple parts on the same sheet, adequate spacing helps maintain edge quality and prevents interference during cutting. Part Spacing
Waterjet cutting naturally produces a small internal radius. For critical corners, allow for a slight radius rather than requiring perfectly sharp internal edges. 
Internal Corners
Thicker materials may result in slightly wider kerf widths, more visible edge striations, and longer cutting times. Design tolerances should reflect the material thickness being used.
