Custom recoil boosters, made to order

For you form 1 guys without lathes and mills, it seems like ya'll are plagued by having very limited options with recoil boosters for pistol cans, so I'm gonna throw out an offer.
I can custom manufacture 17-4 stainless (or other materials, but that makes the most sense) recoil booster housings with rear caps and springs to fit inside your tube. I won't be your cheapest option, of course; I would need the tubes in hand to properly match threads, and we're talking 4-5 hours of machining time, so it'll be in the neighborhood of a couple hundred bucks plus shipping, but it's an option. I can make the pistons, too, but would suggest choosing an off-the-shelf option unless those won't work for your design.
I can make a booster housing for 1" pistons (SiCo and others) to fit a tube ID as small as 1.080", although most pistol tubes are 1.375" or 1.5" OD with at least 1.25" ID. I don't like to go thinner than .040" on the walls, but if someone really wanted it, I suppose I could.
This is the booster housing I make for my Phoenix suppressors, which spaces the blast baffle. I can't get the images to embed for some reason. Sorry.
