WANTED - Locost machining for hub
Dangle_kt - 8/12/14 at 11:29 AM

Hi,

I have a project I've been playing at for months, and it's come to the point where I need a small amount of machining done on a hub. I used to have a friend of a friend who would be able to do this sort of thing - but he just emigrated, so thats gone up in smoke.

It's a motorcycle drive hub that I need a few mm taking off one of the faces, I'd estimate the hub is approx 7-8inches across, so someone would need a reasonable size lathe.

I'm happy to pay for the work, but I don't want to pay pro prices!

So if anyone with a bit of knowhow and the right kit is interested in say £30? (I don't even know if that is reasonable for the job sorry...)

Then let me know.

Happy to post, but I am based near southport and travel to Manchester every day so perhaps someone local might fancy a play?

Cheers

Metal Hippy from here does some lovely machining for people of all sorts of engine parts.

He's in St.Albans but maybe you can work something out.

Cheers,
James
