I live in Frederick (Braddock Heights) and just need a steering stem pressed out of a triple clamp, turned down to a smaller diameter and pressed back in place.
Looking for recommendation on where to take it.
THANKS!

I have been having problems with the server running out of resources and giving errors. It is better but I'm still getting some periodically. Please report any you get to me at ken@kyler.com.

I had one excellent result with Curtis. BUT the last time is was pretty much a disaster. He took a month to do a one or two hour job even after I told him I REALLY needed it in a few days (2 weeks into the month) and sort of refused to answer my inquiries as to what was happening. etc. So I need to go somewhere else.

Re: Machine Shop Recommendation?
I had a similar experience several years ago. I thought he was reformed. Hopefully that was an exception.BigBird wrote:I had one excellent result with Curtis.

Bill Coleman Linthicum MD. A bit of a drive for you but he will do a good job and not burn you on cost. 410-799-2906 I've known Bill since I was a kid and he's always been busy so if you're in a hurry he may not be your guy. Nicest guy you'll ever meet.
Re: Machine Shop Recommendation?
A buddy of mine tells me all kinds of stories from when he used to work at Coleman Brother Speed Shop; I think Bill was one of the owners. From the stories, it was a pretty fun place to work....anotherguy wrote:Bill Coleman Linthicum MD.

Man that was a great place. I spent many my days in my youth there.Skinny-J wrote:A buddy of mine tells me all kinds of stories from when he used to work at Coleman Brother Speed Shop; I think Bill was one of the owners.

Wow, small world. Did you know a counter-guy named Tom Lenhoff? That's my buddy...trialsrider wrote:
