Home / Pricing Determining Your Material Cost Due to the custom nature of each cut and/or engraved shape, it would be very difficult to nail down a single price to cover all circumstances. So to help you determine how much your shapes will cost based on material, size and thickness, we’ve put together this handy chart. It lists each material and it’s cost per square inch. For example, a shape measuring approximately 3” x 2” equals 6 square inches. The cost of cutting this shape out of 1/8” Baltic Birch Plywood would be, according to the chart below, $0.15 per square inch x 6, or $0.90. This chart is a general guide only. If you would like a precise total cost, please request a quote. We respond to all correspondance as quickly as possible, usually within 24 hours.
