Tips for getting a quote...
You have a rectangular pocket with rectangular bulges inside it.
The gap between bulge and pocket sets the maximum tool size.
Suggest you make the gap as big as you can and then radius the pocket corners to fit that tool.
Should have a tolerance. I suggest your best tolerance for a quote off a hobby site is... "How close could you cut it without making it expensive?".
Aluminium bar comes in 4 metre lengths so if you only want one you may want to supply the material. Add an allowance so there is somthing to hold on to.
