With the high purchasing power of the American dollar vs. our Canadian it might make sense to have work done in Canada.

Tight tolerances but nothing that can't be handled. If you would consider a Canadian company shoot me a message and I will send you a quote!

Thanks

I am not interested as I have the perfect machine for it, but it has been down with a mystery illness. A word of advice, with those tight tolerances stay away from any shops from "Overseas" if they are China, India, Vietnam, third world country types. Not saying there aren't shops in China that can make your parts, they just don't bid on jobs at places like RFQ.Com. Good Chinese shops also charge 60-75% of what a decent USA shop would. There is a person in here posing as USA based that I will guarantee is doing nothing but playing middle man for Chinese shops. You might get a 60 cent on the dollar bid, but it will be because he put his fat mark-up on it and he gets his parts from a shop in a grass hut that checks parts with a ruler for 2 cents on the USA dollar. I have had past friends who worked for places that sourced to China finding one that does accurate close tolerance work is very difficult. If I were you I would ask a lot of questions on how someone was going to make and inspect your parts, I think taking the low bid here will get you scrap.

Thank you for the input Dualkit. Tolerances and delivery time are priorities on these parts, so most likely will go with a shop in North America.
