Screws for MDF Baffles

Sorry for so many questions, but I have another.

Going off the pic in the first post, if I traced the shapes out on the MDF with a sharpie in store, do you think they'd cut it all out? I've heard them do this for guys with box builds, but don't know if it's closely related enough to this since the cuts are a bit more complex. Additionally, am I looking at free for the cut or extra cost?

Wish I could use someone else's workbench, but I don't know anyone with these tools at the ready and having THD do it is infinitely more convenient.

They may do it..doesnt hurt to ask..all they can say is No??Ive never had them cut anything for me..So man I really dont know.I have used welding machines /ect from a High school Like FFa group/HS wood working class/shop..They will do it for free, or let you use the tools alot of times,and even cabinet making shop?Im not sure if HD would,it may take too much time out for them not to charge for prem/cuts?

Yeah, I'm at the point of deciding whether it's worth it to get a cheap jig and just do it solo, but I know that thing will stay in the closet for a looooooong time. Not to mention there's no workhorse at my disposal.
