WTB CNC mill services for HAL 9000
 

I've begun preparing to building a HAL 9000 Faceplate/coputercase.
However I have realized that the metal ring found circling his infamous eye is rather hard to make, that is without a CNC Mill.

That is where you guys come in....

I was hoping that someone could help me with this project by machining out this ring.

It has a 3.577in. outer diameter on the bottom (3.51 on top), 3.042in. inner diameter, it is .355 inches thick its inner edge has been cut so that it has a quarter circle that has a diameter of .28in. (it isn't a perfect circle in the real model but I am trying to cut down on complexity, it is really a curve that takes .09 in. off the top if the inside of the ring and .14in from the top down to the inside of the ring.)

I have pictures/dimentions of this ring from someone else that has built some HAL replicas if any of my descriptions are not clear enough, However I have nowhere to host them atm. If some one could email me at the.lipster(at)gmail.com that would be willing to host them I could clarify on my description a great deal.

I would be willing to pay for materials and any endmills required for the job (you get to keep them)

contact me at the.lipster(at)gmail.com

Thanks,

Sounds cool, email me the drawing should be fairly cheap as long as I get too make one for myself :)

I'll do it after hours at AVT

"I'm not sure I can let you do that Dave" *lol* jk :D :D :D
I'll send you an email with the pics and we can talk about how I can get you the money.

send me a pm with a pic or something. Ill take a look.

Dude,
I shot you a email along with a link to my own Hal project.
