Looking for wood turner/turning companies. Batch production

[Tom91]

Hi,

I'm looking to get some round tapered legs made, and wondered if anyone had any advice on people/companies that do this. Don't have the funds to invest in my own lathe yet (perhaps in the future).

Cheers,
Tom

How many did you want?

At the moment probably 12 legs, but I will probably be looking to produce more in the future.

I want to get an idea of how much it might cost. It'll be the same length and profile etc, I'm thinking it would be a job for someone with a copy lathe.

The number that you are likely to require I agree regarding the copy lathe or alternatively perhaps contact Richard Findley, he's a member and does a lot of copy work. Worth PM'ing him or giving him a rig.

I doubt the copy lathe boys would be interested in a small batch like that, but this sort of small batch production is my area of specialty.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this further.

Thanks

Richard

Ps, thanks Pete for the recommendation
