Dead on isn't that dead on......As I recall my machinist only has a couple machines out of ten that will hold to a thousanth of an inch....
Ah. Then a simple template would be plenty sufficient. The guy who does my laser cutting and engraving would probably be able to do that for you for his set-up charge, which is about $80 if memory serves.
If we built more units we could command a better price, but pricing isn't as much of a consideration as getting things done right is much more important....
Sure. Just saying you could easily get it done right in-house at a minimum expense.
I'm just pleased that the job shop agreed to build essentially jewelry in the first place...Just twenty built in four years....
I've found that it's usually not the job shop that'll turn down the small job (though I've come across one or two who have), it's the customer who chokes when they see what it'll cost 'em. :)
Now old growth maple would be nifty to look at, but just .125" would show around each of the RCAs as need the shielding for the phono stage so the wood would be inside the box screwed to the inside of the back plate via blind threaded holes....
I wasn't recommending it for looks. It actually looks rather plain. Which is why I use regular birdseye maple up front where I want the looks. I was recommending it for its performance as an insulating material.
