CNC services by rc10talk members?
I'm sure this may have come up in the past, but haven't been able to find what I am after through the ol' search function.
I have drawn up a couple of different versions of chassis' for my slim RB5 (one is mid motor, one is rear motor w/saddle packs) that I am almost ready to cut out. I bought a 12"x12", 1 /8" thick sheet G10 Fibreglass for the project, but before I try tackling this with a bandsaw and drill press, I thought I'd see if I could hire someone from rc10talk to CNC it for me.
Like I said, I have it drawn up in CAD, and have the material already. I'd just like to send the material to someone who'd be willing to cut it out for a fee. I plan on racing this chassis, so I figure the precision I'd get from a CNC router would be far greater than my hand cutting job!
Thanks!

I own a 3 axis cnc router that can work within a 24" X, Y axis, and 12" Z axis range. Unfortunately I am building a cabinet for it right now so it is not operational. I've been busy but would love to get it up and running by the end of the year.

Thanks guys. I think I've found a local guy who can do it for me. Hopefully I'll have everything ready to go in the next couple of days.

Re: CNC services by rc10talk members?
this would be a great service, as I, along with quite a few others on this board have some little custom parts that would love to get made up
