I've caught the flu that's going around, so I'm kind of out of it today. My price estimate is for only one side, dohhhh.

Looking closer at Emachine, it's sort of problematic for multiple machining operations on each piece. I think it would be closer to the $300 range. The R and D and legwork on sourcing/distribution would quickly make that not worth it.

Let's say you even came in lower at $250 a set and you just were going for 25 sets, that's an initial investment of $6,250. And 100 sets? $25,000. ouch.

30 minutes later....

Wait a minute, changing the machine operation brought a considerable savings, the jury is still out on this one I'll have to update later.
