Hi, does anyone know of a web site you can design and request custom steel cutouts? I need a mounting plate for an internal pedal box and don't really want to do it by hand.

I'd say your best bet would be to design it yourself and go to a local machining shop

Yeah, really needs to be laser or water cut though to get a decent finish. I'm happy to design it, was really after a uk version of something like this http://www.emachineshop.com/ |

Use Emachineshop software to design your part and then export the format into DXF or IGS or STL files that any decent machinist shoud be able to make your part from. Emachineshop software wis easy enough to learn quickly and you can and do get good results.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

Just noticed this post! Yep, can get laser cutting done. Generally materials up to 6mm. We do thicker, but generally means a lot of waiting.

No probs MarkGTT. Can do Aluminium (5251 grade), Stainless Steel (304 grade) and mild steel. Other grades I have to see what's about. On 19th Jan, 2010 wil_h said:

Sorry Tomm, didn't see your post there. What kind of work do you do? Anything I'm unable to do I could pass to you.
