Western Michigan University has unfortunately lost one of our sponsors who was a primary CNC shop for our vehicle. We do not have CNC capabilities at our facility. A company who had our material for the rear uprights for over 8 weeks just told us they never started on the parts and have to return the material because they have become too over-loaded with other paying jobs. With less than a month to competition we are looking for someone new to help make out parts for us. We have contacted over 40 manufacturing facilities around south-west Michigan with no luck. We are looking for either another University or any other machine shops within 75 miles of Kalamazoo, Michigan which may have some time to do some uprights. We are willing to help out another Univeristy in any way if they can help us. We are also willing to simplify the parts for ease of manufacturing if needed on such a short time-line. If anyone has ideas we would greatly appreciate it.
