>How do I identify an odd job machine shop? What characteristics do I look for?

Machinist here again, and if it's a small kinda run-down joint, it's a "job shop" that will do whatever kinda machining.

After looking up machine shops, use "street side view" on Bing/Google maps and take a look at the joint, if it looks more or less like pic related, stop by with your cast iron pan and ask them what they charge.

If they're not busy, they might even let you hang out in the shop and watch the pan being turned smooth (bring safety glasses).
