>>5317337In my experience, most two part resins are about on par with generic ABS, in not weaker. And to put that into perspective, even Lego's really nice, custom synthesized ABS isn't as tough as a generic POM. So, yeah, obscene is the word I want to use.
The fact of the matter is that joints which aren't the proper material wear faster and don't work as well in general, fragility aside.
If you want to do it, that's fine, this is just how I am. I tend not to even accept joints made of ABS unless it's gunpla or lego.
>>5317331Are you asking for a generic price range for people who offer genuine milling services, or asking if I'd be willing to make the stuff myself? Because if the former, no clue, I've never asked anyone. But if the latter, I tend not to do large quantity stuff, just fixes. It's pretty hard when you're doing a lot of hand carving/sanding, even with a dremel.
I don't mind making whole sets for single figures, like if someone worked in joint with me to articulate an amiibo, but I'd be doing different joints for a lot of them instead of the same one over and over again. To elaborate on why that might be a bad thing -- making them over and over again mostly by hand means they'll all be slightly inconsistent.
Why not buy revo 6mm hinge joints? Those are POM and sometimes PA (pretty sure it's around 95% of the time POM). If it's about a specific color, I really just work in raw (milky white) and black, so I wouldn't be able to help there either... though I have grey copolymer POM, it's really soft and probably really easy to rip though so I haven't used it on anything yet.
