Triton Sponge frames... titanium trials.

But I doubt you would trust my skill level, so that is out of the question, plus I wouldn't do it for free. The fact that you think you need a special "titanium cutting bit" for the mill indicates that you do not, in fact, have the expertise to make a set of bearings holders. Unless you have a cnc mill, bearing holders are actually a reasonably difficult (but well within the reach of any accomplished machinist) project. I know about 30 people with the tools and expertise to do the job, but they wouldn't do it as a favor, so you shell out big cash ($100+ per hour), plus they would probably walk away from any job that small where the customer does things like beg. Make a few sketches and go find a local machine shop. It's really not that hard. If I go back to my last summer job during winter break, I seriously could make you a set, but as I said, I'm charging shop rate, since that's a serious project. I could theoretically make you a set at my home shop, except that it's 3,000 miles away, and honestly, bearing holders are a kind lame project to start with, so I don't see any reason to in the first place. -- gerblefranklin (Shut up and ride) http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Trials-Muni ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gerblefranklin's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4295 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64220 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
