LJ Hivemind: What tool would you use to cut a complicated shape out of a thinnish sheet of steel? Assume that there's no budget for a jigsaw. The shape's maximum linear dimension is under 2' (60 cm). Would a Dremel tool do the job?
Me, I'd send it to the waterjet place on Vashon, or have a friend plasma cut it, or it might fit in the laser cutter at Metrix. But a jeweler's saw will work. Eventually.
Laser etch the pattern as guide to keep dremel/jewelers say from wandering? The print and glue works very well and we /do/ know people with plasma cutters... though I'm not sure of availability.
