While I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from getting a CNC router or laser, as a little exercise in outside the box thinking, 3D printing these insulator sheets would be a fairly trivial exercise. I sometimes print first layer calibration test squares on a flat glass bed. Dial in the bed leveling and the single layer ABS prints peel off the bed and are very thin and tough. You could easily add layers to create whatever dielectric strength you need for your application, but I'd bet one layer would probably be enough for common purposes. These thin parts would print very quickly.
3D printers (filament and liquid resin) are quickly becoming my toolbox full of hammers and all of my problems are looking like nails to be smashed by 3D printed awesomeness.
