Is there anybody who can assist me in completing a bit of accurate machining with the use of a small lathe?

The component in question is a standard Compression Tap connector, which requires the end machines down to a size for fitting a o-ring to.

Component and drawing supplied, just require price for the actual machining.

You might be better off saying what you're willing to pay rather than asking a price, as someone might quote machinist rates that would exceed the value of what you have in mind.

A location also, as posting back and forth will cost.
