I enjoy the challenge of making parts for my model helicoters and have had great help on this site with learning how to perform simple engineering tasks. My problem is that whilst I enjoy the practical side, I don't have my own machines and rely entirely on using a neighbours workshop. Add to this that I usually end up buying my own tooling and large pieces of stock, it works out extremely expensive. What is the best way to find a small workshop that is happy to perform small jobs? The drawing below is an example of the type of parts I need.
