Hi everyone.
I need someone to make this part out of aluminium block.
Size is H=35mmxW=56xH=162.
This part is to mount my stepper motor onto the bottom rail of my clock. If your are interested I will send you the stl of the job.

Hi Dean,

Welcome to the forums !

If you have access to a 3D printer it should be an easy part to make !

I haven't got CNC, but that part looks like it could be made on a manual mill without too many dramas; I'd be willing to give it a go.
(some accommodation for the interior square corners would be needed whether manual or CNC)

Ok. What sort of price are we talking about?

As others will tell you, I normally work on the basis of material plus what it is worth to you for labour.
Without pricing the material, I would guess a lump of Al for that would be around $30 to $40 and probably take a couple of hours to machine.
You'd also be up for $8 to $9 postage to get it to you.
