Letterbox s/s laser cutting
Building myself a letterbox (brick/limestone) and i need a custom size metal box built preferably stainless steel (at least the facia), with the house numbers laser cut in the front facia. Does anybody know who could help me with the metal box/how i could go about it?

Have had some stainless heat shields made by these guys before and turned out very well.

If you need the numbers can just pm me All these are profile cutter and can cut stainless steel from a range of grade/thicknesses. For the letter box should use SS316 No.4 finish, corosion resistant and shinny. Not too sure about etching on SS may look shit but mild steel is fine.

Rang a few places and been quoted on Marine grade SS316 not sure which number??? it's a facia plate 3mm in thickness 400mm wide and 700mm high and 70mm deep (basically a SS box without the back plane). It'll have some supporting plates where the cutout for the letters is (70mm). Also the house numbers will be laser cut with some dark metal backing behind it. Rougly $400 - $500 including the 4 bolts welded at the back of it for the attachment to the limestone....what do you guys reckon? too steep?

If the quotes are all the same sort of price, then no.

That and average price since stainless is more expensive then mild steel and 70mm think?

it's 3mm thick
70mm is the depth of it... so it's not just a plate but a box without the back plane...if that makes any sense marine grade ss316 is the non rusting stuff i assume?
