was on the phone with a laser cutter and opened up to check those links - they can't get any 6082 - he said "6082 is a european standard, our equivalent is 6061", which is a bit bullsh*t, but that's what he said...
he's contacting the supplier about pricing for 6061
*but* it's produced in imperial, so I need to choose between 9.53mm and 12.7mm. 1mm of narrower track is easier to deal with than 1" of wider so I think 9.53
*another but* is they were out of stock of the 9.53 a couple of weeks ago, so I might need to go with 12.7mm, which gives us more room to machine them if we want it
steel sounds better and better by the minute!
