fabricating blocks in high qtys.

I posted this in Design and CNC forums, with little bites. Maybe I am impatient??
Anyway thought I would post in here where theres more traffic...
heres a copy/paste....


Hi everyone,
Its been a while since I have posted but I check back often and read the posts. I am in the middle of master bath remodel where all my free time is in to it. I started out to design and make the cabinents only. Since then I have installed Kerdi shower, set wall tile, plumbing, new floor, freestanding tub, walk in closet, and new paint. Yet to do is custom wood frame mirrors and his/her vanities/cabs. The cabs and mirrors are in the design phase and I am sure I will be back with questions.....

Anyway, my question. I am running a side project for a friend that needs 600 wood blocks for a sales training program. These blocks are used on large format color plots during the training sessions.
Attached is a 3D design illustration of this 1-1/2" thick block.
Heres what I need:
- qtys up to 600 pcs.(block halves)
- blocks will be painted or dyed a blue color
- the block will be etched with text.

The wood grain is not relevant to the design so a low cost/grade wood is ok to use.
I have local contacts for doing low qty parts in high density foam, plastic and wood but these high qtys I get killed on the price.
I need to know of a source that specializes in wood block building, etc.

So anyone here do this or recommend someone???
BTW. I can provide .DXF several 3D file options

Thanks,
Chris

these would no be hard to make. but how precise do they need to be? cutting solid wood accuracy is tricky as boards change. how thick are they? using a man made wood would make them easier to get accurate. what is the price range your looking at?
