I know of a guy in the USA who does his own anodizing, but his setup looks very complex & it requires loads of nasty chemicals, so its usually a case of send the parts off to a specialist company to get them done. You pay buy the 'basket load', rather than a set price for each piece, so the more parts you get done at once, the cheaper it works out per part ( thats the usual practice that I've seen ).
