2mm Stainless Steel & CP stuff

(1/2) > >>

My buddy and I are working on button bezels and joystick disks in 2mm stainless steel.  I knocked out some CAD for him to get some better data and pricing on his end as he is not a BYOAC'er. I know it has been done before but I have not found anyone that actually sells them. My question is....

Is there a market for this type of thing???

***the third pic is something that I just slapped together***

I use 2mm sheet metal

the best solution even how you have wooden panel - better to give sheet metal

I sell my washers for $5 each and the single button bezels for $2.50 each if that helps.

It would be good if you could produce some of the larger button bezels. Ive had a few people ask me if I could make some for them but I dont have access to a lazer/water jet cutter. I CNC milled mine for my cab and it is just too labour intensive to sell them (my fingers are bleeding from polishing as i speak!)

Its a matter of opinion but ive found 1.5mm is perfect for the washer thickness.

There is the answer I was looking for.  ;D

We are just playing around at this stage but we would be happy to fill the niche if possible. 1.5mm is ideal. That is great to know as well! Thanks a TON........

Which larger buttons are you speaking of? Manufacturer and type?

Awesome vid Kowal, I couldnt see that at work this morning  8)

Skippy, I didn't mean bigger buttons, I meant the larger pieces of material like in your bottom model (and Kowals video)
