I was wanting to know if the was any companies out there that can build kits from your plans. I dont have the time to scratch build but I have plans for an A-1E Skyraider and was wanting to know where if at all I could get the parts made. Thanks.
If you have plans from Ziroli, Palmer or one of the other plans services, check out the Laser Cutting Services. They have the laser cutting programs already for many of those plans. Look in the Scratchbuilding or Kit building forums, or search online for Laser Cutting Services.
If you drew your own plans, then you're probably on your own, unless you want a production run of kits made. The professional cutters pretty much stick to cutting from known designs, and won't write up the CNC program for a single kit.
If you're looking to have someone cut the parts by hand, and expecting a reasonable price... let us know who you find.
Good luck,
