Machine Shop South of Denver
I’m 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?

Re: Machine Shop South of Denver
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 wouldn’t do small jobs.

Re: Machine Shop South of Denver
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.

Re: Machine Shop South of Denver

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)
