I would be definately interested in as many colours as possible, I like the idea of UV reactive colours and an LED holder incorporated into the design. |

Not trying to rain on anyone's parade, but I just had a very simple injection molded part quoted, far simpler than a button, and the tooling charge was 4000 dollars, with per part costs at .50 for a quantity of 2500. Are you dealing with a company that has the mold already and just custom colors run, or starting from scratch? If you are thinking of designing your own, then be prepared for a pretty sizeable investment up-front. FWIW. RandyT |

Put me down for at least 12 blue since I just bought a blue track ball to match ;D I know this one sounds strange but if pink is a color you can do I would like about 9 of them. ( I am doing a Ms-Pacman cab with differant Cp's but staying with the Mspac overlay) |

:-) I'm not starting from scratch (not completely anyway). The company is looking into fine-tuning the plunger it a little bit for me. If it turns out to be far too expensive, then I wouldn't do it. I'm still waiting on price quotes. --- Quote from: RandyT on August 29, 2004, 08:55:51 am --- Not trying to rain on anyone's parade, but I just has a very simple injection molded part quoted, far simpler than a button, and the tooling charge was 4000 dollars, with per part costs at .50 for a quantity of 2500.

The manufactuerer has told me that he's going to try hard to get me some pricing answers by Thursday. |
