I work at an engineering company that has a large professional laser cutter. Its way beyond what i'm capable of opperating but I was discussing what kind of things I could do with it with the opperator. He was saying basically anything I need cutting, just bring the drawing to him and he will program it in on night shift and cut it for me.
So that got me thinking, why not get some 2 or 3mm alloy sheet and make a completely custom case?
I was thinking something along the lines of a mountain mods case, u know the U2-UFO kind of things. But i'm no technical drawer, i cant do all that cad stuff etc. and i've no idea what program they use to do the cutting, but I can find out.
What I wanted to know was, is there anyone out there that can do that sort of thing that would be willing to design a case, or perhaps copy the U2-UFO one.
If we can make a really good job of designing the case, then I can see about getting it cut out, and assembled (we also have a variety of machines for folding etc)
If someone can help out I would be willing to get a case made for them too at cost price + delivery.
Just an idea, i'm hoping a good one, sadly out of my league of knowledge and ability.
Any feedback or ideas are welcome!
