I have a part that is best for metal spinning. 6" diameter that tapers to a 3" kinda like a cone. Aluminum 6061. Roughly 3/32 wall. Anyone have the capability?

It is going to get polished so good enough that it won't be a pain to sand out marks.

Looking at 4pcs and without looking, I believe they are 7" or 8" long.

That's an easy spin job but for only 3 parts it can get expensive, tooling (mandrel) .100 6061-0 aluminum and heat treating.
If you're lucky you might find a spinning shop that has material and sends 6061 out for heat treat and will throw your parts in.
