Looking for good small lot acrylic laser shop for small parts 1"x12" with holes in the USA. Likely first runs 10 to 20 parts. Any recommendations appreciated!
 
In 2008 had some aluminum cut. Can't remember where I went? Might have been this place?

From 2008
Torque plates are done. Emailed DXF file to local laser cutting place. Went to talk to them. First think I notice is these guys talk in hundredths of a inch. Why did I draw in millimeters? We in the USA here. Funny mistake would to build part 100 inches instead of 100 millimeters. Laser guy measures Crystalyte 406 axle with Caliper Measuring Tool.

He say double D hole should be ".405 x .470" Thickness is 8 Gauge. That's about 3/16"

I ask how much $? Laser guy say how many you want? I say one of each. He say nothing. I say that's not enough. He say $0, no money. I say how about $10? He say OK. I go home and change millimeters to inches on drawing by simply hitting button on emachineshop program.
