Need A Quote- Clear Polycarbonate Face

[brock]

All,
I am looking for a quote for 10 pieces.

This part needs to be made from 0.25" clear polycarbonate. The finished product must remain clear except for the edges and holes as this is a face for a pressurized case - The user needs to be able to see through this part.

I've included an STL and a SLDPRT file in the zip file. If another format is needed, let me know.

Thanks!

Do you specifically require polycarbonate? I can quote it for you in clear cast acrylic if that will work.
Thanks

Frank,
Given the case will be used at pressures nearing 370psi, the face material needs to be very, very strong. I'm under the impression that acrylic wouldn't be as strong as the polycarbonate.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I've accepted a bid from a shop in NH.

Total bids: 6
Variance on bid price: 100% - A single bid was half the price of the rest, whereas the rest where within +/- $0.50 per piece.

Thanks to everyone who bid. I have more parts coming.

And in case anyone is interested, I did not go with the lowest bid. I actually went with the highest bid due to having a conversation with the shop via telephone.
