Default anyone here work with rubber/injection moulding

Looking for someone who works with rubber, a company to rebond/remould some engine and gearbox mounts.

Ideally locally to me, Bucks, but not essential.

Cheers

Dan

Is this for personal use or for selling?
injection mould tools are very expensive for an engine/exhaust mount sort of size i reckon you would be looking between 5-10k for a steel tool, or you can have a cheap tool made from ally for about 3-5k unless your wanting to sell thousands of these I wouldnt bother
