The thing you'll come to realise, is making hobby money machining something for somebody else, is likely to bring more headaches than profit.
I do do occasional jobs for other people, but they're mostly because I either want to help a mate, or just fancy doing something a bit different knowing full well it'll not likely to be profitable.
The vast majority of stuff I machine is stuff I sell directly myself, and while it is nice being able to load a length of bar into the lathe, hit run, and come back an hour later and retrieve a couple hundred pound worth of parts from amongst the swarf, it is good to exercise the brain cells and do something more involved occasionally.Avoiding the rubbish customer service from AluminiumWarehouse since July '13.
