Freelance machinist needed for a small and easy (I think) job with 6061

OFFERING WORK

I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask but I’m looking for a freelance machinist with a small shop or even a garage shop that wants to take on a small and relatively easy job I need done. Basic milling on 6061 aluminum stock, nothing more than pocketing, drill/tapping (M3), and some 45 degree chamfering. The pieces range from 4 inch x 8.5 inch x 3/8 inch stock to smaller pieces of 1/4 inch x 1.5 inch bar stock. It’s for mold making so nothing too fancy. Tolerances within 5 mil are generally fine.

I’ve been making what I need myself with a comically inadequate bench-top cnc mill, but I could really use someone with proper equipment and who actually knows what they’re doing to make these. I can send step models and drawings as needed.

If anyone is interested please send me a DM.

Thanks!
