Machining parts

[Str8V8ping]

Does anyone have a supplier they use to have small parts made?

Also what program do you use for drawings?

Thanks Breaktru.I have tried them before.

Ooh, that's neat. I wonder if it would be affordable for a group of us to design a case for an aluminum bottom feed mod that wasn't boxy and uncomfortable. I'm going to have to see what their price quotes are for a basic design now.

emachineshop is pretty expensive. They wanted 15 a cap for the carto caps i wanted to make plus the setup fee and that with a larger quanity. Im guessing one mod like that would be in the 300+ range.

I was working on a box that I had printed by Shapeways last year. Got out of box mods shortly after I received it. Was only $36 but was a simple prototype, didn't build in the curves etc. So the price of a comfortable box would be a bit more.
