Hey all,
Thought I would let you all know about an interesting opportunity that just came across my radar.
A company called Big Blue Saw is having a promotion on August 6th for their machining services in which they'll laser- or waterjet-cut a part up to 9x9" in size out of 1/8" plastic or aluminum. You have to pay shipping. Details can be found on their site at [
www.bigbluesaw.com].
This is a pretty limited service - you can only cut one part, and it has to be flat. Still, figured it might be useful for some of you out there. And I bet you could get away with cutting multiple pieces out of a single "part" - just lay them out with little connecting bits that you can snap off when the sheet arrives. As long as the total area fits within the 9x9" envelope, it should be fine.
