Welcome back Irving it's been too long so nice to hear from you again.
Can't you just form this around a piece of material the width of your channel. 1mm sheet bends easy enough so shouldn't be a problem.Last edited by JAZZCNC; 11-11-2015 at 07:11 PM.

Hi Dean,
Yes, its been too long, tbh got a little too inwardly focussed and last 6 mo or so I've struggled with just coping day to day, but trying to get up n running again.
Well if I had some tools and some hands to use them I probably could... but my tools are still in storage and I couldn't use them anyway. Anyway, I think the way to do this would be to cut them out with a plasma or laser cutter to get neat radiussed corners (failing that, tinsnips and a file
), do the surface preparation (not sure what exactly, want a brushed, stainless finish) then score the back and fold using some 6mm mdf say as a former.

Good that you are back online.
Just my usual two pennuth - dont forget - most stainless steel is low magnetism.
Cheeers,

Thanks. Wasn't suggesting making them from stainless, just needs a brushed steel/stainless effect finish that wont rust! Not sure how you get that.

Use a magnetic grade of stainless, they're not as corrosion resistant as non-magnetic grades but still stay bright in most non-marine applications,

Grade 430 stainless is ferritic (magnetic) ...it's normally used for kitchen equipent...hobs, worksurfaces, door kick plates etc.
Looks like this guy can cut to size...
