I just designed a small one piece multi-tool. I want to get it made of steel or possibly even titanium. But, I don't want it sold or anyone to take my design as I want to keep it for my MA students. What would you guys recommend? Is there a company or person that could make it for me? Or is it even possible to get the equipment and make it myself?
 
i think that there are a fair number of machining companies that would do it for you... not sure about the legal copyright stuff, but if you wanna make sure it doesnt get out you'll have to deal with that aspect of it
 
True. Eventually I will need to do that. The problem is I need to get it perfectly exact. I still have some measurements to take and some fine-tuning to do. Right now I am trying to find out options for getting it made.

Of course if anyone wants to give me Waterjet Cutter, that will take care of all of my problems. :D
 
contact h2oknife here on the forurm. he has a complete machine shop and a waterjet. i'm sure he would work with you.

Getting in touch with them may be worthwhile, I'm 99.99% certain they have a waterjet and don't mind small run stuff at all, they also like the name suggests stock titanium.

Another option! I appreciate it!
