You might be able to get one made if you can get the people who made the Phantom (name escapes me at the moment) to give you the CAD file.

I've talked to litster about it, and they plan on eventually selling whatever extras they have and/or making more plates at some point.  My impatience is what led me to post this =)

I'm pretty sure the plate files are somewhere in the Phantom thread either here or at Deskthority. I know I tried to tamper with them in AutoCAD before (tried to make a Realforce layout plate), and failed - my CAD skills are nonexistent.

If I'd known anything about laser/water cutting aluminium, I maybe would've started a mini group buy or something. We're at least three people in need of Phansi plates, apparently. :P

I have a copy of the plate drawing files from bpiphany. If someone wants to run a quick GB for the PHANSI version, I'm in for one. I believe the originals were laser cut from .063" 6061 aluminum, sanded to bring the thickness down, and then anodized black.

Otherwise, GLWB, Dan!

Let me talk with litster first before we go and try to reproduce some of this stuff.  I don't wanna step on anyone's toes, so let's start with that.  Thanks for the info guys =)

Edit:  I think the idea of reproduction is actually quite cool, since we can customize what color anodize we want as well.  I have a local shop that does it for really cheap with basic colors.

I'm doing a stainless steel poker plate right now, but I'm planning to do a mix bag run after that.

Sorry for semi-threadcrapping Dan (I guess one could see this as a free bump though), but the Phantom plate files are available here, at Deskthority. Might be old and not working, I don't know really.
I'd still talk to litster before doing anything though. :)

The_Beast: sounds interesting!

Are you interested in selling anything you have listed for cash as well, or only for trades?

I'll be throwing up an auction soon, where I may be listing some of these items.

litster said that him and BiNi would like to sort out any extras before we try and make this a reality.  I don't think it'll hurt to try an interest check though, so we'll see.  I'll keep everyone updated as it comes along...

It's been a really, really rough week.
