I didn't think that it was. The metal looked a little too thick, they use 20 ga.
I've found a place that will CNC laser cut for me for $200 an hour. The prices on metal has gone back down some, so I can get it done at a good price and in an hour I estimate that I can get 3 to 5 burned. They said that I have to buy at least a full hour, because if the set up time and labor of loading and unloading the machine. The metal shop said that they will help me nest what I could and rearrange the drawings to get the most bang for my bucks. Now I have to finish the plans and find a new place to live. If my wife catches me dropping that much at once, on yet another hobby, she is going to kill me. I can't speak for anyone else, but I would really miss me if I was dead.
