Re: pic: Omnitrack Summer Project?
You're right. Making that one piece does seem like a job that could be done with a customextrusion. Sheet metal seems like a no-go if you ask me. You might be able to get the part lasercut or water-jetted out of thick plate, but it will have a draft angle, whigh might be okay though. Maybe you could put in some radiuses and have it CNC routed out of some good quality ply or some other good quality wood? Post on cnczone.com in the RFQ forum and people will jump at you with offers of how to make it and what it will cost.
I'm just curious, what is the problem with having it be two pieces of C channel as it is right now?
