Hey guys,
I'm making some concept custom gauges for my chevelle and I am on the hunt to find someone that has a cnc laser cutter/etcher. Do any of the members here offer that sort of service? Or have any of you used a similar service that you could refer me to?
also, looking to have some rings cut out of aluminum if you have a waterjet or cnc router let me know.
Thanks,
scott

Scott,
I am just north of you in Simi Valley. I have a laser and could help you out. One of the easiest ways to program the laser is from a DXF pattern. do you have something that can output that?

Oh that would be awesome. I'll have to check if I can export a dfx from photoshop. I'm converting all of the graphics to vectors right now. I'm sure I'll be able to get you a dfx somehow.
Thank you!
Edit: seems like I can import my psd into illustrator and export a dfx from that.
