If you don't mind going as far as Astoria, here is the feller I use:
Portway Machine Works
503-458-6171
Ask for Gary
He's pretty reasonable price wise and can handle anything. And he's good.

well a miracle today. I get a good list of shops to go too and I have to open up
the box of Japanese irons. I had not opened them as why since I thought I would
be shipping them again. well what do I find but they are pretty much flat. they
finally got it right.
when you have 2800.00 worth of irons You don't take chances. take care all.

DSU Peterbilt over on Swan island has a long history of machine work
repair of diesel engines where tolerences are in the .0000's I would
think they could make a recommendation. Also perhaps a call to the
local INTEL factory to talk to a FAB supervisor might come up with
someone.
I have a contact for a water and laser jet cutter and they often need
machinists as well.

If you haven't found anybody yet, a number of years ago I had a
serious problem while passing through The Dalles. There was a machine
shop that did some really nice work for me there at a good price in
very short order. IIRC, the name was Dalles Iron Works.
I know they are a bit east of you, but any port in a storm, etc.

I should have asked when he called. but it is too hard to get a hold of him.

We're in Washington. I can put you in touch with our sales guy if you'd
like. We've got a couple of surface grinders that are never that busy. A
little further away than what you'd like, I'm sure but guaranteed good work.
