If you have a lathe I need your help

Just a kid with a welder
The stock bearing spacer that goes between the wheel bearings in my front wheel has too small of an ID to fit over the larger axle I'm using. I considered having the stock part opened up a bit but the inner race of the bearings has a fillet that the spacer would ride on if it were machined instead of the actual face of the inner race.

I need it to have a...
20mm ID (axle diameter)
3.0-3.4mm wall thickness
68.5mm long

The ring that you see in the picture below is used to help keep the spacer centered so it's easier to slide the axle through. It has a 35mm OD, and the face is 38mm from the right side of the spacer in the pic. Since it would probably cost a lot more to have that machined as part of the spacer I can tack that into place if you can machine it for me. I figure a 2mm thickness for ease of welding. Steel or stainless would be the desired material.

Here is a picture of how things look with the spacer in the caliper, the old bearing on the left, and the new bearing on the right.

I'll be needing wheel spacers and a caliper bracket made too but need this done first so I can measure for those. I'm hoping this won't take more then a week to make since I want to get the bike mostly together before school starts again but I understand time is money. Let me know how much this will cost and a time frame of when you expect to be able to get to it.
