Metal Mouse Pads Wanted
 

Got into a promo idea problem
at work— I need 50 pieces of
aluminum or steel or something
slick/sexy like it, so we can
print or engrave a corporate
message on the surface.

Can anyone here produce such
an item by this Friday?

Hey, if this doesn't work out for you, try getting ahold of a shitload of old circut boards and grind the solder and components off. After that you should have a slick smoothe surface aaaaannnnd you're recycling.

I used to make clipboards with that and people loved them.

Need 50? or just a few?

You could contact Metal Supermarkets...they've got all sorts of stuff and the chop-saw equipment to cut it to size.

You pay by foot...but with so many cuts you might have to pay extra. Alum is quick to cut through...but you'll still need to clean up the edges and do finish work.

I'd call Dave (Imperial Engravers)...and have it lasered in.

If you're looking for thin stock...they have brass/alum on hand...but don't know about the dimensions you want. They do have material to do plaques on hand....so maybe that'd work.

Dave's a good guy.....though double check the spelling first! :)

Time is the key, client has
already picked the design
direction, so the material
has to be metallic or sim
the appearance.

There's no time to go with
more than one supplier, So
I'll try Dave, thanks for
reminding me :)

Sex..."oregano"...money...cool toys....they all work on Dave. I'm sure you've got 3 of the 4 covered. Unless it's a sit-down meeting with the clients...then you'd better find some "oregano". :)

I work for Tradesman manufacturing in Lethbridge AB I do believe our laser can do engraving. contact them from there site. http://www.tradesmanmfg.ca/
