I finally spent some time on this project today.
I made another version to keep the cost as low as possible.
I think 5 profiles and all the holes can be machined in one set up, then the last step would have to be done one at a time unless a jig was made.
But for now, no jig..
I'm getting quotes on the material and the machining.
I hope to have some news fairly soon.
After a few of us verify the design viability then I will let every one know the cost.
Then, I will look at making custom covers and a slightly different design :-o
