[Zmagnette] Machinist projects

My son is in college in a two year program to become a machinist.  It 
seems that he needs some proposals for projects he can do there.  As 
the one paying the tuition, I get to suggest something that would be 
of use to me and my MGs.  One thought I had was to make a nice socket 
for the octagon shaped rear axle nut.  Does anyone else have any 
ideas for any cool stuff I could suggest?  There's no guarantee that 
he will do it, as the project would have to fit in with the goals of 
the course work.  So, what would you guys do if you had a machinist 
at your disposal?  Note that this is not an automotive machinist 
program, so they are not set up for operations on engine blocks, 
crankshafts, etc.
