Looking for small, simple, manual lathe work, any quantity

[sanddrag]

I have an 8x14 lathe that does not have anything lined up for the summer. I'm looking for anyone that needs small simple parts (up to 4" diameter 10" long) in any quantity. I'll give a good price since I have no expensive machines or shop space that I need to make payments on every month. Just trying to make a few extra bucks for the summer. I've been machining and doing 3D CAD design (primarily in the area of competition robotics) as a hobby for about 5 years.

I am also able to do some limited milling if the part requires that.

Please send me a private message or just post here if you are looking for someone to make your parts.

there is lots of good easy to make parts for paint ball guns
from delrin I have been asked to make a trigger as well
but I think I'll task that by hand if one were to make a few
how much would it cost

Need a quantity of about 100 for the first run so CNC would make things quick. Part requires only 1 or 2 cutters and a part off blade. Made of 7075-T6 aluminum 1/2" x 3' extruded rod provided by me. I have a manual lathe - just don't want to crank out 100 of them by hand. Email to warped@htc.net or message me on here, or post in this thread. Thanks for looking! Reply With Quote

Sanddrag,

I know it says "preferrably CNC", but with a good price, delivery and quality you could be awarded the job.
