    RFQ- For some aluminum plates.

    Hello,
    This is my first post on this forum! Im looking for a quote to have a type of part made. Very simple, aluminum plates, could probably be either water or laser cut. These are parts for a RC helicopter and im wondering if they would be cheaper to have my own designs made or to go out and by manufactored CNC parts. I attached a sample below in a screen snap shot because I cant upload Solid Works 2004. Not sure if thats what most people use but the parts I would like made are similar but just a little more complex, these are just a sample so I can get an idea on cost. Would like about 2 of each made and dont need very tight tolerances. Thanks for any info. Also I can be contacted at my email which is [email protected]

    Kris I can with out a doubt tell you it would be less expensive if you can purchase these already in current production. If your design would be better, I.E. lighter, stronger, simpler then get quotes, most of us don't charge for quotes (READ CANT CHARGE )
