Ronny,

We make microdevices using aluminum structures including cantilever
structures.  We would be happy to give you a quote on building your
devices.  The method we use is to grow oxide on silicon, etch the oxide
to make openings, sputter aluminum and pattern and etch it.  Finally, we
etch the silicon that is exposed using XeF2 and it undercuts the
aluminum leaving cantilevers.

I hope this is of some help.
