I would like a few custom metal caps made, probably for the jr gent kits. I don't have a metal lathe or I would try it myself. What I would like is either aluminum or brass and I'll have the brass plated in rhodium or something similar.
Is there someone here who would be willing to turn some parts for me? I basically want the "barrel" and I'll have it plated or coat it with CA and press the "kit" parts onto it. I would like there to be a slight bow in the barrel, not just a straight cut. Or if they are slightly underturned, I could file/sand the rest of the way before plating.
If you can do this for me, please give me an estimate of what it would cost or if there's an easy way that I can do this myself without a metal lathe (ie. maybe home depot has some brass pipes that happen to be the inside diameter that I need and I just don't know about it...).
