If you had a CNC machine..?

I don't. But I do have a mate who does... well, kind of a friend of a friend... anyway it's part of his business... which has been busier at times than it is at the moment. So much of the time the CNC machine isn't doing all that much.

Every now and then I have a half hearted urge (or a not very well thought-out idea) to get him to make me something. Ideally something that there might be a small market for. Not so much to make money, but perhaps to keep him busy... and meet a need.

I look at things like repro Ringle Mojos and think... But I'm sure there are better ideas! Which is why I'm just putting it out there. It's a dream. And most of my dreams don't get any further than the dreaming phase. But who knows...
 
Custom chainrings, jockey wheels, derailleur cages, rear hangers,
Slotting, drillium, pantograph work..
 
Re:

Replacement flanges for dead Hope Ti Hubs if you want a crazy hobby or reworkings of their early Disk Brake calipers
 
If anything I'd like to see some C2 calipers for the right leg as seen on Marzocchi Z1's.
For the dual front disc Hope made bitd.

I had one in the Hope stuff I got off their engineer. Took me a while to realize thats what it was but it was too badly damaged to keep, most of it ground away by something. Should have hung onto it, just for the pattern shape.
On that one the mounts were on a curve, like 1/2 a circle :?. Interesting.
 
Re:

Mill up some pre 2000 Marzocchi "I.S." caliper adapters and free up all those lovely Z1/2 forks!I`d say a few lads here (including me) would buy them.It enables any disc caliper to be used other than the rare as hens teeth older I.S. caliper.A guy on here was doing them and promised me he was doing a batch,that was 2 years ago...
 
Re:

There seems to be demand for the marzocchi fork canti mount that bolts on the the brace.

Chain rings for shimano m95x cranks as they have a non standard bcd.

GT RTS rear canti brake rockers are often asked for, as are syncros slated stem caps.
