    5-Axis Machining

    I'm looking for help machining in 5-axis. The part I have is small, about .50" and I'm trying to machine .010" to .015" slots longitudally and such. Can anybody recommend a shop who has this ability?

    ~Thanks

    The end mill needs to be normal to the surface at all times. This can only be done by a 5-axis machine.
