Anyone supply Castings or Laser Profiling Shops?

Very much not car related, but i need to source a set of firebars for our steam narrowboat at somewhat short notices.

The great are about 3ft round, and the bars are 10mm wide bars at 10mm spacing and about 30mm thick in thee parts.

Currently we are running cast iron, for which we have all but one of the required patterns (one got damaged) but others are using stainless profiled or fabricated grates which we could also try.

Happy to pay for it, but if anyone knows anyone in either industry these are the first set ive had to get myself, now that we have run out of the batch we had cast last time about ten years ago.

Andyw7de could probably water jet cut them for you.

He's done stuff for me and is a top bloke!

Got a PM from him.

Ive also found a place in wigan that might be able to cast them in the time required which might be cheaper for now (already spent a lot on the boat recently!)
