If you build electronics,

If you build electronics, I’m trying to spread the word about an idea I’ve been pursuing for using metal photo prints for electronics panels. Original blog post is here: http://frankie.graffagnino.net/2015/03/new-way-of-making-electronics-front.html

Here’s a video I made detailing some of the challenges and solutions for getting things sized correctly for two photo services… Bay Photo and AdoramaPix:

This is a very cool idea, however question. What if you sent this and then scanned the return document and traced it in InkScape, convert to SVG and create g-code from this? While a bit of Rube Goldberg way of doing something, however should work and adjust no matter what they cut or crop…

yes, that’s true… but in my case i need my components to be in a specific position… and usually most folks need that since you need screw holes to line up and things like that. Plus the sizes of circles for things to go in need to be correct.

Ah good point, still a cool idea you had and will have to give it a try!
