Would anyone care to fabricate a custom socket for me?

I need a crankshaft socket made to fit a specific application, anyone interested it making this for me? I am more than willing to pay... Shoot me a PM if you are up for the task.

Is there a reason you can't just thread the old crank pulley bolt into the snout of the crank and put a regular socket on that to turn an engine? It doesn't require enough torque that it would strip threads in my experience.
