I called the local company and asked for a quote -- their minimum order is 5 and that sounds about right to cut ~45 sheets. They can be sharpened, too. I asked for a ball end so I can do 3D shaping with the PhlatPrinter 3, since it can do this. The nose and the tail may be a lot easier to do if I use it to shape the foam.

The bits are likely to be ~$100 each or maybe more. I was hoping for ~$50 each, but I still think it will be worthwhile getting them.

We had this freaky snow storm and they were still out of power on all but one leg of the feed, so this will slow down their response.
