Margery,

    I have a model that I made years ago that would be perfect for this
    project. It consists of two rings that were machined to lock
    together. I made this on a simple Enco Compact 5 lathe/milling
    machine. I used it to lock two haves of an egg together. 

    If you like, you may borrow this model to show a machinist in your
    area. Anyone can do this job, and there is so little waste from the
    machining operation that I wouldn't worry about saving the scrap
    (most machine shops don't worry about saving the metal that is
    removed). You can even check with a local hobby shop, since even a
    hobby machinist would have no trouble making this.
