I'm crazy enough to make something like that. There are a couple tricky parts there for me to machine, but my machine is capable of machining that.....
I was shocked that shops simply said, "nope, not interested". I provided the SW native files so tool paths would be easy to do. Just need a big Z axis for the water pump back plate...or a 5 axis/horizontal bore.
I see no 5 axis machining requirement for that part, Am I missing something??
