Default WANTED machining services in the south west

After a bit of thinking I've worked out that my 4" little Samson cast wheels will not fit in my Colchester student with its gap removed and on a faceplate. So if there's anyone relatively near Exeter who wants a project for a couple hours then just PM me and we can come to some arrangements. Its nothing too complex so I don't think would take too Long, the wheels are 18" in diameter and 3.375" wide and of course I have all the drawings here.
Many thanks, James

Hi James
Have you thought about doing them on a mill
I did my 6" Samson wheels on a rotary table on a Bridgeport and it was fine

That's a good idea however I don't have a rotary table or a boring tool. I'm in no rush as I've got exams at the moment so cant go out to the workshop but I thought I best find out my options

I had a chat with him a little while ago and he seemed very busy. Alistair Cook has given me a few good pointers so i may round to having ago in the next few days as I have a break from exams for a while.
