I am after getting some stainless cut.
Needs to be about 7 foot long about 12 inches wide.
Fairly simple design.

Laser or water cut or perhaps CNC if possible - what ever works really.

I need a few done as samples, maybe half a dozen, then if all goes to plan I would like maybe 100 or so doing.

If anyone is in this line of business let me know.

I am in the N/W.

Not looking for FOC, will pay whatever the cost is. I meant samples for my customers then if they go down well I would expect customers to order so might be a decent size order from it. IYSWIM

Its basically a template that will be used to cut out carpet like material.

Nothing fancy but needs to be able to cope with a bit of abuse. I would have thought good quality aircraft ali might also do the trick.

Maybe 3mm?

Stanley blade will be doing the cutting and we go through boxes of the things so not a problem as the material we are cutting dulls them at a serious rate of knots.
