Need any custom laser cut tabs etc?

Within the next few weeks I'll be sending a CAD file to a local laser fab shop to have some 1/4" tabs cut for me.

If any of you guys need some oddball 1/4" steel shapes cut I'd be glad to add it to my order, I'll probably have a minimum order anyways.

WJ knuckle spacers come to mind...

Matt

Blaine, I get the impression that their standard pricing is based on very large quantities. Last time I brought a small cad file to them with a dozen small tabs they said something like "give me $50 and I'll throw it in next time I cut 1/4".

So, I really don't know.

Tam, It's American Laser Fab. They are around the corner from my office in Escondido.
