Has anyone used these guys before
were you not asking for the UK and a cheap hobbit?
Last time I did this outof house was using Lasershape in Leeds on brushed stainles plates approx 350mm x 220mm approx £13 each for 20 units they will take a standard DXF file and use either water or laser to cut. They only have a two axis cutter so no bevelling. Then I had some of the units sent to a silk screen company in Colchester who printed it with a logo 1 colourway approx 50mm x 30mm for about £30. but I think we only sent 2 units off to them.
By the time you have the shipping costs to and fro and having to give files in correct format you might well be looking at using one of the array of products at somewhere like www.megauk.com. Give them a ring they are very helpfull they may even be able to put you in touch with a local UK based Hobbit customer of theirs.
There are a number of people doing the soldermask principle on very thin sheets of stainless and etching designs into the surface. Some of the business cards they produce are very impressive, just an idea........
oops got to go fast
