I have an early 3 blade big shaft. No bushing and no retainer groove. I want it bored to take the plastic bushing and retainer clip. Who can do it ? How much and how long ?

Also any machine shop can do it assuming they have a lathe big enough to swing it. Hard to clamp in a chuck however. Can also be done in a mill. We made a fixture years ago to make it easier. If you can't find someone localy we can help, figure $150

Not just any prop shop can do this. Having the correct lathe chuck is the ticket. Like Marc said, if you can't find some one to do it, we can. We also have the bushings and clips to install in house. We charge $180 and the bushing and clip is about $25.
