I have used polyester stencils from [smtstencil.co.uk](http://smtstencil.co.uk) and the quality/price relationship is unbeatable for simple projects with features down to 200μm.  
Please, can you offer a similar option and cut down stencil prices?

Hi @vj1 ,

Welcome to the community and thank you for your request!

Even though polyester stencils may offer price advantages, they do not match the high quality of steel stencils. In addition, considerable adjustments would be necessary in the data preparation of the stencils. Therefore, we currently see no possibility to offer polyester stencils in addition to our steel stencils.

Best regards,  
Manuel
