Bogen CHB-20A Rebuild

[physics]

The second machine shop wanted to do it on CNC too, said they wouldn't be able to do it by hand. So I called a third shop, this time specifically asking if they had a lathe and saying that I was looking for a cheap one-off not a pricey CNC-perfect part. Turns out they don't have CNC machines at all, instead running things old school. I popped by, talked with the machinist, he said he can do it for around $60 with about a three-day turnaround. I left the cambion press, the 1715 tool, the cambion tool, and some of the eyelets. We'll see how it turns out in a few days. Nice shop, the machinist actually offered to give me a tool he already made, but it wouldn't fit the cambion press. He said material for making the new tool would be free though, so that's cool.
