Default CNC Cut Panels?

Hi All,

An RV8 builder friend of mine suggested I ask this to the forum.

I am a small one man shop doing a wide variety of custom projects ranging from woodworking to CNC cut pieces. I can cut a variety of materials (aluminum, ABS plastic etc)

Is there any interest or need in the RV world for this type of service for cutting instrument panels or unique pieces where dimensions are critical?

I previously worked as an engineer in the aerospace field for 15 years before venturing out on my own, and enjoy unique and different projects.

Thanks,

Kevin

Welcome to VAF Kevin. Sounds like you are in the same line of work as we are. Super fun stuff, huh? Have you done any panels yet? They are tricky, but nothing looks better then when we finish a custom CNC cut grained and anodized aluminum panel with laser engraved text.
