Machine Shop South of Denver
IΓÇÖm looking to get some simple machining done on some steel wheels, need to open up the hub bore by 9 mm. Any recommendations for a place near Parker?

If you find a place please let me know. The two places I used to go to are gone. Every place I called for machine work wouldnΓÇÖt do small jobs.

That's sucks, but confirms my feeling that the mom and pop machine shops are dying out and being replaced with bigger production shops.
I wish I could help you out, but wheels are too large for my equipment.

I know Ft Collins is on the other side of the world, but if I remember correctly, Canfield Industries did my wheels a few years back. ($20 bucks a wheel)
