    Need Simple Panel CNC'd SoCal

    I have searched and searched, even tried that emachineshop.com thing. I havent been able to find someone to cut 3mm thick carbon fiber. I need a really simple switch panel made, well more than one actually. I dont have any CAD skills so I used Corel Draw to make the "template" and its OK at best.



    I can email someone the Corel file if needed, but I have exported as both a DWG and a DFX file with links to both below, keep in mind I HAVE NO DRAWING SKILLS!!! There are only those 3 different types I need made. The overall dimensions are 3.21" x 4.7" with .25" radiused corners. All other dimensions will be in the corel file, which I can export to a I have the material that I can provide. I just want a cost to make these. I'll start off at lets say 5 of each style, then I'll probably get more as soon as I sell these off.

    Panel.dwg

    Panel.dxf

    Thanks

    I get panels made up by a CNC engraver that creates them out of lamacoid, I would think that this kind of machine would take a 3mm carbon fibre?
    The panels I have made are not only engraved but holes and cut-outs are accomodated.
    He takes DWG files for one, there may be a similar operation in your vicinity.
    BTW why Carbon Fibre?

    Its carbon fiber for the look. Plus I used 3mm to match the stock thickness of the stock part. Its for 1st generation Mazda RX-7's (1981-1985)
