Getting started is easy

How to prepare your sketch.

No technical training required. A pencil, paper and a few dimensions are enough for an initial enquiry.

These details help us:

Overall size: Length, width and height in millimetres.
Holes: Diameter (Ø) and centre position measured from two reference edges.
Cut-outs: Width, height and exact position.
Bends: Which edges need bending, and in which direction?
Material: For example, 2 mm aluminium or 1.5 mm steel.

Missing a detail? No problem. We will clarify it before starting the design.
