Need a shaft turned down, Calgary.

Ive got a cutterhead shaft off an old jointer and I need it turned down on one end.

Current OD of the shaft is ~1.620. I'd like it turned down to 1.5" OD 3.50" from one end.

I'm not looking for alternative suggestions. I'm willing to pay for this service of course and can share details of the hows and whys of the reasons for needing this shaft turned down.

Sure I can turn it down for you. How long is the shaft and how precise the 1.5" in and the 3.5" in need to be? Does it have to be some kind of perfect finish - or just basic turn it down? I assume its soft steel not hardened as I can see some screw indents.
