Request
If I have a railing spindle that is 1-5/8" square by 23-1/2" long and would like a spindle copied from it, would one of your turners be interested in taking it on as a project ?

Trying to save a chair
 Hello; 
It's a kitchen chair that has a turned spindle.  Do you know anyone that does this kind of work anymore?
Any hardwood would work.  It's 17" long with tenon's that are about 5/8's long and 3/8" wide at one end and 11/16" at the other.
 Appreciate any advice you may be able to offer,
 
Thanks,
Jonathan Mark
