I don't understand why you can't call your anodizer right now and get an updated lead time. I'm not ignorant to this whole process - I've run custom parts on a CNC before, finished them, and I know exactly the wait process one has to go through to get a batch of parts anodized, and exactly how costly it is. But I also know that any reputable business you're interacting with can give you a lead time +/- a day, and definitely cut you a break if they know you're in hot water with customers due to something taking so long.

Are they not open on Mondays? Stop playing forum PR person and make some phone calls like you should have been - away on business or not - last week.
