Was thinking the same thing that this would be perfect for you guys. What's left is to research for a stable material which is cutable with the laser. Sucks that you can't cut metal (but CNC would be also an option, which can cut metal, sadly I'm not able to use it (yet)) That cardboard which is used by architecture students might be worth a look as well as quality wood itself. depends how small/detail-rich the icons are of course.

I really am lusting for these:

But: too expensive! $100? wtf. Also I'd want a full set.

Rather than rip those guys off, and in lieu of spending ridiculous amounts of money, and while I wait for Inkscape to start up before I dig in and start making my own, I thought I'd ask if anyone else on Metalab has designed something similar, or would like to, for DIY/lasercutting?

Maybe such a thing (sorry UIStencils) as a customized MetaLab stencil kit would be something we could use to raise funds for the 'lab? I see this being useful in interesting ways ..
