Need A Quote- RFQ-series of small sheet aluminum parts for micromouse robot

[apache405]

Hi

I am looking to get some quotes on how much it would cost get these machined. They are all sheet metal parts from 16ga 5052 aluminum sheet metal. I am looking for at least +/-.01" and preferably +/-.001" (if the cost is reasonable) on the parts. This is for a college project, so I need to keep the cost as low as possible.

I am open to changing the design to lower cost/make things realistically makable, seeing as how this is my first real venture into metal part design.

I need 5 sets made. I have my own break, so I am planning to bend them myself, but I do not have a mill (I nearly lost a thumb trying to cut out the circles on my drill press with an end mill).

I attached the part files in a zip file. there are .igs files of the flat patterns and the SW part files.

There is also an e-drawing for the robot the parts will be going into.

Thanks!

Using standard utility sheet stock will reduce your costs (3003).

Hi apache405

Can you do a PDF file so more people can see what you want to make

[apache405]

Ok. I made some pdf's. The dimensions are all in inches to the hundredth.
The scale on the drawings is 1:1.

Material can be either 3003 or 5052, don't care this thing has a huge over design factor already.

Also, the link to the e-drawings viewer is:

Hi apache405

Is there just 4 parts to this & can you supply the material

[apache405]

Yeah, pretty much.

The three tops and two of the mounts make up one whole set

mactec-

Yes I can.

How far from 92130 are you?

Hi, e-mail me at chris@donalmachine.com These are laser parts, not machined parts. We carry 5052 in stock. Very cost effective.

Send me your info and approx budget and I can get these machined fairly cheap + - .003 tolerance do you have the dwg or dxf files available contact me at ambrosefx@cox.netI have a small CNC that can handle 6.5" x 9.5" and I may have the material in stock. Is the alum. alloy critical or can it be unknown scrap stock?
