[OpenTRV-dev] we dont need to get a stencil.. we can print them :-D

[Bruno Girin]

The cost in used PLA would probably be counted in pence or cents as the
design is very flat. A professional outfit like
http://www.3dprint-uk.co.uk/who would have better quality printers
would probably charge something
between £5 and £10 based on the prices they gave me on stuff I did with
them previously but they have a minimum price order of £15 (see
http://www.3dprint-uk.co.uk/quote/)

I know that the London hackspace (https://london.hackspace.org.uk/) has a
laser cutter so we should be able to use it if we ask nicely and make a
small donation.
