Lathe to turn an C Mount adapter ?

[kirkster501]

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a small machine shop that can turn an eyepiece adapter down for me please, preferably in the Nottingham area?  It would take ten seconds tops on a lathe. I need to reduce its thickness by about 3-4mm and it needs to be flat and flush after it is done so it seats squarely.  Mickey mouse job on a lathe.

FYI it is the C >1.25" adapter that comes with the Lodestar X2 and is about 1cm thick.  I can't get enough inward focus on my Moravian OAG with it at the standard thickness.

Alternatively is there a thinner adapter available?

Thanks, Steve
