Yeah, good idea, but I already have bunch.
I had a Cuban Dance company a few years back, insisting on a rig full of 6x16's/20 degrees. Purchased a lot of 1/2 and 1/4's ap. gobo's instead for our (at the time) 6x12's. They never noticed and it saved a rental.
I do know of a tin smith locally, maybe I'll draw up a design and price them out, easier then dragging a gobo out of the book, loading to a holder,
etc... bet it'll be more then $1 ea. though.
