Machining in scotland or by anyone on here?

Hi all I am looking to get a bit of ally or steel turned to make a mount for my paddle shift. Nothing too complex 45mm stock turned to 40mm one end and 42mm the other with a 30mm ish hole thru the middle.

Does anyone on here do such things on here? or can anyone reccomend a machine shop in the west of scotland that doesnt charge the world and his wife??

Also can anyone suggest a stockist of 45mm steel bar? plenty of ally on the bay but no steel.

For small quantities of steel, I use Metal Supermarkets, down by Ibrox. Might be worth giving them a ring.
