Help with Lathe Work on Hard Steel
I have a shaft made of hardened steel and I am seeking someOne with carbide tools and lathe to make one. It is a arbor shaft used in a Drone brushless motor.
Normally buying a replacement motor is inexpensive and easy.

The Drone is a Skydio 2 and parts are not available and the company is not sharing the motor specs for am DIY.

There are two diameters and a Cir Clip groove, overall length is about 1.5 inches.
One end inserts into the coil side, other sticks through the magnet bell and accepts the center hole for the propellor.

I can be reached at jamesfthorman@gmail.com
Any help is appreciated.
