I just talked with the place we are getting the plates made at. Apparently they only do waterjet cutting, no CNC milling but he's sending me some contact info of a few places near me that do it. I'm gonna call them today and find out what kind of file we need and maybe get some sort of price estimate.
Cool! I hope this will pan out.
Same here, to put a Phantom 7bit in that is.
The thing is that they don't really do mass production (though I'm not sure if there's a reason they couldn't), they do custom requests, so they don't make money on volume but rather because they make things that you can't find anywhere else and charge a premium because of that.
Not sure what's available. My friend just told me that if I brought him the design he could make the case. We mentioned either using aluminum or steel but other than that didn't get down to the physical part much. We both go to school together and have some of the same classes and we're pretty swamped so this cool project has been put on the sidelines till the end of semester in about 3 weeks like I said before. I also don't really think that there's going to be a second round, so as far as this interest check has gone it's been too successful lol, more demand than supply.
Waiting for 17 Dec
It will just be the natural color of the metal, and it's likely going to be in stainless steel. Should give some real nice weight and sturdiness which tends to be considered a good thing. Might try one or two in aluminum.
Titanium is a nice alternative.
agreed, especially titanium with a brushed finish looks amazing!
