I need a custom push-through bullet sizer

So I need a custom push-through resizing die and ram like the one Lee sells. However, need it in .729. Lee doesn't make one that large no matter how much you beg. I saw a YouTube guy that used a stainless steel bolt in 7/8-14 to make one. If that seems a bit on the small size, perhaps he misspoke and meant 1-1/4-12. Eiether way, having no equipment or skill to use it if I did, that's not going to happen. Any assitance would be appreciated. I keep being told, "Oh, it's a simple job." Well, may be but no one comes forward to do it. I live in area rich in machine shops. I called around and their minimum is a small car payment, sometimes a large car payment, depends on the car. I keep telling them, "Oh, it's a simple job."

I know there are several people here that can do this. I'm hoping you're not too busy to humor me.
 
"Oh, it's a simple job." doesn't mean it's a cheap job. Especially for a machine shop.

If you have a local hobby machinists group some of them like to do odd jobs for the price of materials and cutting tools. Some hobby macinists are interested in the challenge more than profit.
 
I think I may have found someone who is exactly who you describe. He's not a business. He's a talented hobbyist. His email to me is almost word for word how described himself.
