Need five of each.
Have plywood already.
Also have 6" and 5 " version.
Five each needed for all three sizes.
Cad files are Solidworks and have ability to save in multiple formats.
Don' t know what files are needed?
See attached for 7" size
Thanks in advance!
Those are easy. You might want to rethink the 1.5" thickness depending on your plywood

I see that you already have the plywood and I am hoping that someone does step up to do what you want done.
That said, though, if no one steps up, it looks like it would be relatively straight-forward to cut the shapes out of 3/4" ply with a BS or scrollsaw (plus a drill for the holes) and then gluing them together to get what you want.

Would it be practical to have someone make a template for you and then you route them yourself?

Ok, gotcha. Makes sense now.
Thanks for the reply.

I have been pretty happy with the online laser cutting services I have used. Cutcutsend and oshcut

Not sure if you can make your project fit what they can do, but with a dxf file you can get a quote online.
Full disclosure: I have only had them do stainless and mild steel.
I wish there were machining services like this, but they all seem to require human intervention. And emachineshop will send your job to total hacks.
