2.15mm is an odd thickness - whats it for ? (hubcentric spacer for wheels / brake discs ?)
you may need to get it machined rather than just cut ad it sounds more like a job for the lathe

It doesnt have to be 2.15 but thsts the difference between two parts, 2 or 2.5 should be fine.

Have you sent a reminder ? He normally replies in a reasonable time, might have slipped his mind.

I was thinking the same myself.
Laser/water-jet/plasma etc. are great processes and do have loads of applications...but they don't beat the traditional methods every time.
