Unless you're smarter than all of them, perhaps take the hint? Fabricators aren't just there to complain, heeding their advice here would probably save you money. Red flag.
- lnsru 2y agoThis! A big red flag to me too. The manufacturing is hard. Even if you design it properly there are million ways to fail somewhere in the manufacturing process. Hardware is for graybeards.
- smeeeeeeeeeeeee 2y agoAs a background, I was a pretty experienced production engineer before going into this. "It's impossible" means "It doesn't make sense for us to do this with our current machines/setup times/engineers, etc". If what you want to make is possible, you will find a shop, or a combination of several shops, whose specialties line up with what you're making or how you're making it.
