I’ve been looking at Chinese machining services for a while now, wondering why everybody seems to want to buy a CNC router from China instead of buying services. If you search the web you’ll find lots of people buying CNC machines or building their own. At the same time, a quick look at alibaba.com shows hundreds of companies seemingly willing to do prototyping work even in single-unit quantities. Just search alibaba.com for something like “cnc machining prototyping” or similar and you’ll see what I mean. I intend to try some of those out, but perhaps someone can do that first :-) I’ve had very good experiences with both buying from aliexpress.com and with ordering PCBs from iteadstudio.com — inexpensive, with quality meeting expectations every time. I don’t know why CNC machining would be any different. To keep this message on subject, I’ve been thinking about a nixie clock with an enclosure made from CNC-machined brass, requiring a 5-axis machine. So, you might want to look at some of those companies and try them out. It shouldn’t cost much. And please let us know if you do! —J.On 04 Feb 2015, at 17:30, Paul Parry <p...@bad-dog-designs.co.uk> wrote: Hi Guys, Anyone suggest where I can get some little spacers made ( brass preferably ) I need 15mm O/D with a 9.5mm I/D hole and 7mm in height. They are to allow me to fit some little glass tubes that hold little Neon colon indicators into some regular 15mm copper pipe fittings. It would take someone with a lathe about half an hour, but it isn't something I have. I would need 20 of them and clean out of ideas. One engineering company quoted me a 3 figure price just to set a lathe up :( Kind regards, Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
