If you have a lot of those to make, you may want to invest in a clicker press and have a steel rule die made. Your time per part would be reduced to seconds rather than minutes. Tippman makes good presses and I get my dies form Ace or Midwest steel rule dies.

Good call Tom, it does come from McMaster Carr, but that is the part number provided on the drawing for the material by the engineer.
The press would be a great idea, however we only make these parts once every three years so the cost would not be worth the return.
Our margins on it are still very good however so it's not a hater once it comes in the door like some other jobs!
More of a pain in the neck keeping it clean!
