India is fine, but be sure you are ready to provide a full quote that includes all shipping/taxes/fees/etc rolled into the quote. I will send you the RFQ package tomorrow. Thanks! -Jeff

I've poked at every setting I could find, but I can't seem to turn on new-post-on-thread e-mail notification. Anyone have an idea? Thanks! -Jeff

Unfortuneately, they need to be rectangular in cross section for stability. They have to fit into a slot about .130" wide. -Jeff

Enco page 51, part 383-5308. Thanks! -Jeff

I need qty 5 of 1/8" square HSS tool bits (2-3" long, 2.5" seems to be standard) ground down to different heights. The bits need to keep thier hardness, so go easy. They will be used as guage blocks. I need: .115" .110" .100" .095" .090" (+/- .001") The other dimension (I'm measuring .122"...

I have a wire-edm job that I need done. I need various shapes (hearts, stars, triangles, etc.) roughly 1/2" across cut from 3/4" thick 304 stainless with a reamed hole in the middle of each. I need them in batches of about 100. The accuracy required is more than laser or waterjet can...

I've notified the selected supplier. I learned alot in the responses, and will post some thoughts at a later date. Thanks! -Jeff

Garret, I don't need help with specific parts, but I would love if RFQWORK could collect guides for diferent processes. I've made a start with my guide to 2D processes: http://www.jeffalbro.net/cnc/2d-comparison/ But I have NO idea about costs and design considerations for molded plastic...

I will select the winner tonight. Thanks everyone! -Jeff

Andy, just my two cents... I'm happy to have my jobs done by shops outside of the USA, but you should know how much it will cost to get the parts into my hands. -Jeff

By "dynamic" do you mean a tilting-head jet? What kind of accuracy do you get in 1/2" steel? Thanks! -Jeff

I'm gonna be nosey here... If you can allow the part to be stack laminated, and then pinned together, you could make it on a waterjet cheaply. It looks like your fins/troughs are all the same width. EDIT Never mind... I just looked closer at the fin/trough widths. /EDIT -Jeff

Just looking at options.... Take a look at this website: http://www.mag1instruments.com/ A two part ball is a possibility, but the seam would have to be quote smooth and of a fairly constant radius. Thanks for the feedback! -Jeff

Anybody? -Jeff

Seeing the prices was very helpful for me to understand more about milling costs for jobs I might put up for quote someday. Thanks! -Jeff

DareBee, you seem to be **unusually** well informed about customs and shipping. Once, I got a quote from Austrailia, and I asked what the parts would cost to get here and they had no idea... I dropped them like a hot potato. I'm **happy** to accept quotes from out of the country as long as...

Okay, I just e-mailed everyone. -Jeff

Hi Masood! How do your machines work, and what are they capable of? Are they UV catalyzed plastic machines? Where are you located? How strong is the finished material? Thanks! -Jeff

DareBee, You are correct that us buyers need to do a better job awarding jobs here. I closed my thread but still need to respond to e-mailed quotes individually. One comment, buyers SHOULD be afraid of importing. I just got hosed on brokerage fees from Canada. My RFQs now state: "If you...
