True! That said, the monopoly plays a role. I bet if you gave these specs to an open bid sheet metal fabricator somewhere in the US they’d replicate it for less

True! That said, the monopoly plays a role. I bet if you gave these specs to an open bid sheet metal fabricator somewhere in the US they’d replicate it for less than 52K shipped, no?
- giantrobot 3y agoIt's still not going to have a non-trivial cost after testing and certification. Even if it's not 52k it's not going end up a small fraction of that. Certifications can be expensive and can cover the entire process of manufacturing from materials to how it's packaged for shipment.
