this is true, although since there is nothing elaborate involved you might
get it cheaper by going to a one-person operation. What IS suprisingly
exensive in my experience has been getting standard end notches cut on
panels, since nobody has a standard punch for these & so it takes 2 or 3
operations and a bit of precision.... i have found the cheapest approach to
be to use 2mm steel and have the holes and notches laser cut......(for
quantity 50+)

there is a technique for pcb making using iron-on transfer of laser toner
from pastic sheets, has anyone tried to use this for panel art?
has anyone tried to use ink-jet thermal transfer paper on a painted panel?
