I am looking for a machine shop to drill extra holes in a bicycle hub.


http://www.amclassic.com/en/products...ssettebody.php


This hub is available with 24 total holes (12 on each flange) *I would
like a shop to drill a new hole between every existing hole to create
a 48 hole hub (24 holes on each flange).


The holes should be about 2 mm (0.079 in.) in diameter. *Straight
holes are O.K. *Countersinking is not required.


Any suggestions appreciated. *Please post to group.


TIA


Got a drill press?

At this time, I would rather take this to a shop.



Just a few questions, what do you think this is going to cost you?

Is this for a tandem bicycle?

I'd try the yellow pages unless your idea was to see if the hobby types here were willing
take this on for beer money.
