    Are there specialists I can mail my specs to have it done?
    As an example, if I wanted a small cutting tool thats shaped the same as a particular cartridge rim and extractor groove to modify parent cases for case conversions.
    Sounds like a job for a wire cutter, might cost a bit if too fiddly.

    CO2, fibre or plasma is no go, they will leave a shitty cut on HSS M2 or D2 tool.
