NTDWM but thought I would let the masses know about a company I have used to get my manufacturers plate made.

After spending ages trying to get a manufacturers plate from Fury I finally gave up and sent my idea to Clive at http://www.garagistauk.com/ and he produced this plate in a couple of days.

Not only will they do these plates to your own design but they can do dashboards, centre consols etc out of Carbon, aluminium etc.

Thank you! I spotted this guy on ebay a few months back and forgot to 'bookmark' his details...then when I needed him the other day I could not find him for love nor money!

Hmm, not Locost but I over indulged on this..£35 including postage.

Have mentioned this before but for those still working on Locost principles we can print this kind of stuff on aluminium for the cost of materials and postage. Roughly £6 for these plates but can go to A3 size in full colour.
We can work from j pegs bitmaps or redesign from a photo. We will guillotine them out of the sheet but you finish them off. This is not a business undertaking and not generally a next day service. It will disappear in a couple of years when I retire. Have had a lot of useful advice and parts from this site and happy to put something back. Like wise we have lathes and can do most things with nylon brass and aluminium as the machine's don't run coolant again mates rates. The guy who does most of the turning is a retired time served turner with massive engineering experience he comes in to help out and keep his brain active at the age of 72 so again not an over night service but hopefully helpful to those needing stuff machined
