Panel manufacturers in Europe

Hi guys,

I’m looking from where I could get a small batch of panels manufactured, printed on/engraved and ready to use.
Does anybody know where the MI module panels get produced, or like the ones from Grayscale around Europe?

If you don’t mind for plexi a small run is no problem…. drop me a line.

Here’s where I have my panels made.

Not sure they deal with customers outside of France, though.

The Beast in the UK can cut aluminum too. http://thebeast.co.uk

there is always frontpanelexpress (but probably a bit expensive) and, of course, the beast: http://thebeast.co.uk/?page_id=21 In think the latter does the panels for Frequency Central (but not sure). you might also ask people on Muffwiggler who do small runs of aluminium panels (for example fonik), i am sure they know a few good sources.

From what i learned from the discussion about the Anushri panel: prohibitively expensive for small runs (<100 pieces), so maybe not a good first option for you.
