Experience with Manufacturing..

[charlay86]

Check out seeed https://www.seeedstudio.com/fusion-3d-printing.html they do SLA.
They can even 3d print Steel moulds. price is per volume of material used.
I've had PCBs done by them before, they came out nicely - pretty cheap too

Thanks charlay!

Roughly $500usd for the mold to be done. Need to ask them if they can then use that mold to make the cable.. since theres no option there.

Just tell them what you want, they have all kinds of manufacturing and design capabilities.

You mean the trolls to geek radio has increased.

I don't think I can open a single thread on any computing forum.. that doesnt get a cat or troll face appear.

have you got the STL or similar file of your part? Ive got a 4 axis mill and some fancy programs here could potentially make a mold out of Aluminum, then you could press/form your own.
