[sdiy] PCB faceplate large hole creation?

[Mike Bryant]

Don't blame me if they just bodge it :-)    They don't have infinite time on the laser available.

Good to know, I had no idea.
So next time when I'll design tight, maze, ridiculous cutouts in my PCB, they will be forced to use laser cut. Gotta try it...

But they still use mechanical milling as well and indeed their capabilities page states that this is the only offering.  But it's been quite clear on quite a few of my recent designs that the cutouts have been lasered as there are no circular corners - just two straight edges meeting sharply.   But there is no way of specifying you must have laser cutting.  Vias are always drilled as far as I can work out.
