Hi Tony,
Thanks for the offer, I will consider it as =A3222 seems more reasonable :).
On a serious note what do you think I should roughly expect to pay for this=
 part?
What I am trying to gauge is the costs involved, I have other parts I need =
which are a bit more complicated but nothing overly complicated and I need =
to see if getting them made is feasible as a hobby.
I have a lot of ideas I want to try but without machined parts is very diff=
icult to realise them, which is just frustrating...
Best regards

Any small machine shop could do that, it sounds like a simple job.  Probably
half hour labour charge.  Check your local 'phone book.

You might find a hobbyist machinist who could do it as well, I've got the
tools for it (being a small lathe, milling machine or drill).

For =A3223 I'll make it & mail send it to you!  Hell, make it =A3222, I don=
't
want to overcharge  :).

Tony
