I need some brackets making?
In the bid to do a project on the cheap I'd like some brackets making - about 150 of them.
A crude drawing is below. I would ideally like them powder coated in black and from 3mm steel?
Can anyone recommend anyone? It's only a thought at the moment but would like to hear thoughts?
Thanks all

Isn't 40 x 3 a standard stock size?....If so why would you laser cut them?
Just a thought.

Thanks all - Have replied to Boggle.
I'm trying to mount some small form PC's on the cheap below the work surface.
One - The PC's will not be so tempting to meddle with
Two - It'll give much more desk space
Three - Hidden away means less likely for vandalism and theft.
Four - Countertop is crazy money!! I wanted 750mm but 900 seems the "wide" flavour and it's just too much money. Therefore I'm
reduced to looking at 600mm and it's just not deep enough!
So - sadly not a car built purely from brackets, but a hope that these could make a cheap PC bracket for under the desk/table!
