3d printing

[blue]

Hi can anyone recommend somewhere to get a 3d printed cone made - 20mm-80mm and say 4 inch long 

It will need to be solid  as I want to drill and tap an 8mm hole straight through

Why do you want it printed? It would be easy to turn it from solid.

Agree with Peter, better getting someone to turn it for you from a suitable piece of Ali if you want to drill and tap it.

...or you can get this aluminium 3D printed - do a google search and you'll be amazed as whats available these days.

that would be massively expensive compared to getting it turned.

What's it actually being used for. Speculating about materials and manufacturing processes is pointless unless we know what it's got to do.
