George,
 
I certainly would not need him, or anybody else for that matter, if I could afford a balancing machine.

Richard,
Good to see your at the balancing stage.
I have a hunk of 4140 steel on my lathe to start cutting my single rotor e-shaft. I am waiting for my machinist buddy to check the set-up before I start cutting. Any balancer should be able to balance your assembly if you give them your specifications-I doubt Paul would know any more than yourself about the single rotor, however I could be wrong.
 
Are you happy about what to include and what not to include in the balancing weights.
George ( down under) 
Thanks for all the response on the subject. I guess, I should have asked these question earlier.
 
I contacted Paul after the last rotary meet about spin balancing the single rotor. The answer was - no problem, we can do it-. So I packed all the rotating parts, assembled in a nice shipping container and send it on its way to Phoenix. After about two weeks, I e-mailed asking what happened with my parts. It was confirmed that the parts arrived. In early December, an e-mailed request for update was not answered. So I called the phone NR. listed for injection equipment on the website. When the answering machine came on I hung up. Later that day, Paul called back, asking what I needed. When I told him who I was, he told me that the balancer was broke and he could not do my parts before the holidays. That was ok with me.
 
The problem is, this was the last I heard since. No e-mail answer and no phone call return.
 
I guess one more e-mail with the request to return my stuff, is what I am going to do.
