This seemed like as good a category as any…
I need recommendations for job shops to hire work out to – things that are not current capabilities at DMS. I’m thinking someone here might have some experience with local vendors.
Item 1 : anodizing of aluminum parts
Item 2 : heat-treating of steel parts
(more items to follow, I’m sure)

+1 I’m curious about a recommendation along these lines too.
How big of parts are you anodizing? I’ve done some small aluminum tubes on my own at home. The thing that I had the hardest time with was finding Al wire to connect the parts to (steel wire doesn’t work so well!) but found that electric fence wire is aluminum and works quite nicely. Ended up buying a whole spool, so if you want some, let me know and I’ll run 10 feet or so up to the space for you.
I’m hoping to see what my options are for professional services, for various reasons. My immediate objective is to get a solid colour coat on several dozen small pieces at a time. But thank you!
