Thanks Michael & Chris,

Micheal, the Laser Cutting mob isn't back until the middle of January, so I'll find out more from them then.
In between, I'll put some test samples together from MoI, in preparation to see which works better for them.

After nearly a 20yr retirement, I've returned to building some Tattoo Machines again.
Because I've designed all the model & it's components using MoI, obviously I'd prefer to use MoI for their DXF files too.

I'm currently in the process of finishing off the prototype for what's going to be an Aussie Tattoo Legends Tribute Machine.
Decided to built a complete 3D model so I could then do some renders & show the 70yr old gentleman concerned.
Here's one of those renders, as well as two different stages of the prototype Frame which was laser cut in mild steel.

regards Colin
