Re: pic: 2228 Cougar cut on to sheetmetal (CAD)
Just to reitterate real quick is the whole piece is two 12" x 12" sheets of 1/8" thick aluminum, and the supports that are holding the floating pieces, like the swirl on the cougars cheek, on the front plate are 1/32" wide channels. My opinion is that these are completely structural sound for their purpose, keep in mind that if we ever use this it would be for decoration and kept out of the areas that will be frequented by collisions.

Out of curiosity how much would you guys estimate it would cost to get this cut?
