I'm looking for an inexpensive USA manufacturer who can make 10 custom mdf game dashboards (where you can track movement, ammo, wounds, etc, by inserting pegs into a mdf cutout). So far, Google has not been my friend. Any recommendations? |

Clearly the TMP bug got this one. However depending on the size this is the sort of thing you could get printed on an FDM (as opposed to Resin printer)_ depending on size. Something 9" square is within the scope of many an FDM printer and material costs are low. I can't help as I live in the Uk and postage to the US is daft. nbut there may be other on this board that live in the US and have an FDM< printer. |

No specific recommendations, but a quick search of Etsy turned up some services to investigate: link |

Draw up a template and contact any MDF cutter on Etsy |

You're looking at 10 squares of mdf (or 1/4" plywood?) with a few rows of maybe 1/8" or smaller holes and some labels. The necessary tools would be a circular saw and an electric drill. I'd certainly check my local group for anyone with elementary carpentry skills before I went further afield. |

Hmph. Equipment on hand and a clear drawing of exactly what you want, and you're talking between half an hour and one hour of at best semi-skilled labor, plus painting on or printing off and gluing on labels. No one in your group makes plywood houses or hills? |
