We need a blacksmith / metalworker for small batch production job

[CHESSSPY]

We are working quite a lot with great wheels in our new business, and want to contract out the work for spindles.

They look like this:



We just need the metal part, and would make the pulleys ourselves.

Also there is the possibility of making axles for flyer assemblies on flax & Canadian production wheels. They look like this:



I have been doing these myself but do not really have metal-working capabilities yet in my workshop so it is tedious.

Alan,
I owe you guys a visit, not sure how quickly I will get up there. Probably next week on the Tuesday???
But I will have a look at it for you, if I can help, I will, if not I will help you find someone who can!

There is a Western Branch of Artist Blacksmith Assoc. of North America (ABANA) in your region http://www.ibiblio.org/nc-abana/learnabout.html. Also a large supplier for smiths (Kayne) https://www.blacksmithsdepot.com/ . both of them would be good sources for what you are looking for.
