Machinist needed

Does anyone know of a machinist or someone with a mill in the DC metro area? I'm not interesting in hiring a machine shop for the few small parts I need done.

I'm looking for either a friendly machinist who will do something quick on his lunch break (and I mean REALLY quick, the parts are pretty simple no CNC needed) or someone who has access to a mill.

I'm north of Rockville, Md and I commute to Columbia, Md everyday. I also travel often to the Eastern Shore, Fredericksburg, Va and up to York, Pa.

Thanks in advance.

If the parts are small enough to ship to Michigan (Detroit area) I am an option for you, I have a machine shop and mainly do one offs and short runs, I'm currently working with some members on a bell housing project.

If you can't find anyone in your area, I would be interested in taking a look at what you have.

I'm near Fredericksburg, but don't want to take any business from OM616. Sort of a bit busy too.

Busy is a good thing. I won't get down to Fredericksburg in the next few weeks, but I'll definitely keep you in mind next round if OM616 doesn't take the job.
