A plaque? You could probably have a local trophy shop make something like that.

They are ungodly expensive. A local machine shop is almost always much cheaper (in my experience).

doubtful. Their quotes are just absurdly high.

ANY local cnc shop should be able to beat their quotes ATLEAST by half, even on single parts. emachineshop usually wants quantity as well.

For one of their thin metal buisness cards they wanted almost $400. For over 100 of those they wanted $500.

It's a great idea to give people a software they can design their own parts, and have them make it...but their prices are just beyond rediculous.
