    Not sure if this is the right place for this, but here goes. I am looking for a machine shop on the south side of Indy that would rent me time on an engine lathe. I'm wanting to do some experimental work with a Mosin nagant barrel i have and require a good lathe to do so. Does anyone know of such a shop?

    You may want to try IUPUI. I am at IUPU-FW (IPFW) and I took a machining class for my MET program, so you can contact the engineering department and see if that is something they will do.

    not sure about renting time

    may be an insurance liability thing at a lot of shops

    good luck

    I highly doubt you could do it at iupui. Given the guy who runs the machine shop there is really cool, but it would still be a gun in school.
