Hi Bryan, My interest here is in being able to make few-at-a-time spring contacts and such for proof of concept design work; definitely small quantity, hobby level/grade work. It will likely be a week or two before I can start on this project; so if you're not time-constrained, and wish to send your artwork for experimental purposes, that will be fine. Should this trial work out reasonably well, and you wish to have some quantity that I can manage made, then you can send material for that at that time.

I'll provide material and artwork!!

I will just order a few phosphor bronze sheets and build a CuCl solution, and get with the program to see what it takes.

Brass works with PCB techniques because the brass reacts to etchant the same as copper does. Bronze is still a copper alloy, it might react the same too. If you want to mail me a small piece(like, 0.5" sq or smaller, doesn't take much), I can dip it in the CuCl etchant and see what it does.
