Jandon, what is wrong with the picture you posted? Looks good to me? The first pix Wewilldoit posted were kinda scetchy except for the one with the bent up lead. It's not the toe fillets people - it's the heel fillets you have to look at.

Hi, we are a low volume high mix contract shop. My boss wants me to investigate getting the necessary equipment to make our own stencils. Would anyone know a good source for this type of equipment? Or any thoughts about getting into this process. Tha

You should set up a tour of a respectable stencil manufacturer and take your boss with you. My guess is it'll change his tune immediately.

As one stake in the ground, a good stencil shop needs to produce 20 to 30 stencils day in order to justify itself being around. Why does your boss want to consider getting into the stencil cutting business?

The process materials alone will cost you more than a half dozen stencils. Not to mention the labor involved. Then the cost of all the equipment involved? Jeez, how do people like this make it to power?

If your boss is willing to spend that kind of cash, check out the new MY500 from MyData. I receive no compensation from MyData for this, and am not currenly using the MY500. But I am trying to figure out how to work it into my budget for next yea

And the labour involved is not just the machine operator. The data has to checked out, tweaked and the input file for the machine created. And you probably don't want a minimum wage person doing that.

Don't forget the value of being able to blame everything from bridging, solder balls,tombstoneing , traffic jams, the price of gas, the demise of the american auto industry and everything else on your stencil supplier. That would now be you!
