    I used to use this guy for special jobs some years back. He specializes in microscopy builds, modifications and accessories but he might be worth just talking to for something simple like that.

    Edit: just noticed he has pics of two of my projects we had worked on, the EFIC system and the sound chamber.

    Price is probably not much different than walking into a random local job shop.

    I'd guess $200 with loose GD&T, rough-ish finishes, and not expedited.

    UMBC c/o 2013 here

    Hank Mink was a friendly guy

    FWIW.....When I was there it was only John and myself. Mink was hired after I left. I wasn't friendly. :lol2:

    I'm just guessing you were involved with the Mechanical Engineering Departments ASME student Mini-Baja race car program!!
    Yes/No ?

    No I did not do baja

    Living at home working and commuting leaves no time for the "fun" parts of college

    I know a good machinist in Severna Park that could do the work if he's still doing it. Let me know and I'll dig up his contact info. Probably haven't talked to him in 10 years. Used to do a lot of subsea stuff for me.

    There are others on here also but I'm sure they'll chime in if they want the work.

    Send a PM to Irish64 and myself telling me that you send him a PM. Once I get it, I'll give him a call and ask him to log in to see if he would be willing to do the work for you, since he doesn't pop on MDS all that often.
