Default Anyone here work at a machine shop

K guys i've been looking to have some tools made. Seems like the tools i need made aren't what regular shops make. So I'm asking you guys if you work at a good shop or know anyone with a shop. I'm not looking for a cheap price or anything (my company is paying for it since its their tool really)

We'd like it built from brass or aluminum or anything with similar properties. I have Cad Sheets, models, and pictures of it. Thanks and I hope someone knows somebody b/c i'm tired of looking lol

Check out ville platte iron works in ville platte (337) 363-1616. We send them alot of overflow work when we are too busy. They are very good and will work on very small jobs or large ones.

If they can not do it you can try Digital Machining in Scott. I used to work there and they worked with alot of Aluminum and Brass. Ask for Jim Carter and tell him Josh Townsend told you to call.
