Recommended Sources for Aluminum Extrusion, Anodizing?

[Theophilus]

I've got a small part that's cut from an extrusion and needs anodizing that I need to source. This is primarily a cosmetic piece, so the anodizing quality is more important than the strength of the part. Preferably I could obtain a chamfer on the edges of the part during the cut-off process (round extrusion chucked into lathe, cut to length).

Can anyone recommend a good source for this sort of operation? I figured I'd check here first for a solid contact rather than try anyone I could find on the Internet.

Thanks!

There are two excellent anodizers that I can recommend: International Hardcoat (IHC) in Detroit and Pioneer Metal Finishing, which has locations in MI and WI. Use the following links for more information:
