Hi, I have been designing some products and producing prototypes and small runs on my own router. I am now looking to start a small production of one product with the intension of expanding the range if sales take off. I do not have a vacuum pump and honestly the thought of being chained to my router fills me with dread. Some details below
1. The design is cut from one sheet of 12mm birch ply
2. Each sheet makes 4 products
3. I can cut one sheet in 15 mins easy so I assume a commercial company will do more so lets assume 5 sheets
4. I need a decent finish, no tear out but it does not need to be perfectly smooth ie. tooling marks are ok.
I think I would be happy to pay £5 per product so £20 a sheet which works out at £100 per hour.
If anyone is involved with commercial wood routing does this sound plausible?
Many thanks
