I've noticed a significant amount of people looking for parts to no rifle in particular. Some have luck finding what they need after asking a few questions or doing a lenghty search on the internet. I also noticed there where a few people doing custom machining on this site but that was only when I had stumbled upon them. Maybe we could get a sticky thread going with a list of people who do custom parts updated say...monthly? I'm quite new to this forum so go ahead and delete this if it's already up somewhere and I just havn't found it yet. I'm sure it would help with some business for some of the more hobby type machinists aswell.

Actually this is a good idea...
As far as I know here there's Cheese Man and Madhellsing that do that kind of work.

I don't see why not, if anyone disagrees, feel free to chime in.
Let's get some replies first, then we can make a new thread with a list of people.
I do machining, and some other stuff as well.
Wolf beat me! lol...

Why do you keep making new posts every 2 mins instead of editing one?
This doesn't help you know?

This is a good idea, but I am going to wait until some more machinists post here before creating a list of any kind.
Not to worry, amigo.

This is a very good idea but I also agree with Cheese; we don't have too many people to list yet. Before we create a list we need a good amount of people to list. We also need to make sure they want to be listed, because you never know when someone might want to stay exclusive for whatever reason.

As good of an idea as this may sound it might be more pertinent if this was on another forum such as airsoft mechanics or airsoft forum. In general this website focuses on a specific niche of airsoft so the forum size will also inherently be smaller.

I must say Goldentrigun has a point.

I don't think it would be a bad idea anyway, as this forum does serve a purpose, even if that purpose may be niche. Besides, such a list would only benefit our membership.

I think it would help us regardless if there is a better forum for it or not. We are always looking for custom parts and new airsoft tech, and having a list of people known to make quality airsoft parts would probably help us out.
I'm thinking we can make sections in the list, such as a section for BASR specialists, AEG specialists, universal services, etc. We might also list people such as Cheese multiple times, one for each section, because I know you offer parts and services for several gun types. This way we could also copy and paste to other forums, and that way we might even get more people have their name put in the list.

If you insist on doing something like this just make a locked**
child board under the commerce section and just name it something like "services."
It'll be fairly easy to find and just leave a contact on each of the threads so everything can be done discretely. Custom work can also be ranked since it is still a part of the commerce section. Also if anyone wants to have their name posted within the services section they should fill out a application and give examples of their work on other forums. That way only people who do good work will be in the section.
