Has anyone here ever had any Laser cutting done? I have a couple of ideas that I would like to use Laser cut peices for. Any suggestions?

You might contact CBGitty, I believe they laser cut a lot of their stuff, might be able to farm something out to them for a fee.
Try Laser Wood Design, 135 Mystic Ave, Medford, MA 02155
The expensive part will be setup. Can you provide workable electronic drawings? That will save you a lot of $.
There are online services, too... Google is your friend.
Thanks, John! Medford is just a couple of miles away from me. I have a freind who can do the drawing for me. I'll update when I find a solution. Yes, Google is my freind - I don't even remember what I did before google.
Oh, depending on what you want done, I have a 40W laser cutter... :-)
Thanks for the reply, John. I need to cut appx 1/4 inch plywood with the widest dim at 8 1/2. the height is no more than 15 inches. sort of an "L" shape with standard curves. I think it is a fairly simple cut. Once I prove the concept I will want to cut enough to promote the idea.
Nope, 1/4" ply is pretty hard core... My 40W laser won't do more than 1/8". Have you considered CNC Milling?
If I laser cut, I think the burnt edge will actually enhance the product and I may not have to paint which will save a lot on cost. At most, I can spray a clear sealer on the ply wood. Thanks for the suggestions.
hey Martin, I've thought about doing a few parts as well. Have some friends with access to one. Oh, and I gotz mad CAD skills...man, I need to get out more....
