Hello Bruce,
I am a professional prop builder. Among my toys, I not only have CNC machining, but a 3D printer as well. I love building custom stuff as much as replicas, if not more. I would be very interested in working with you to fabricate your designs into real life. I have a few designs of my own I'm working on, but I've always been more of a builder than a designer. Maybe we could trade some services.
