RFQ: Drill Guide Bushings

Hello All

I need some guide bushings made for a special application of a woodworking dowel jig.

The pictures show the general shape: Large Dia approx: 13mm, Small Dia approx 12mm, Length OA approx 33mm
There is a little grub screw dimple in one side.
I would provide example for you to take real measurements from.

Material is some kind of hardened steel but I don't imagine its critical for this application.

What I need are some sets with same outside dimns with smaller ID bore: 3mm, 5mm and posibly 6mm

I need about 12 of each size.

I am located in west GTA (High Park) but am happy to do this remotely through Canada Post or courier.

PM me here if you can help

Thanks much

Have you looked online at the Yard in Kansas City?
They have aerospace surplus tooling and usually many types of bushings.
Maybe they could be adapted for your project
 
Jeebus, I'da figured the results of a web search for drill bushings, online, would have left the OP basically busy trying to sort out the options...

They can be got in so many ID/OD combinations that it makes the head spin, trying to figure out why they are so cheap!
