    RFQ: qty 20 6061 parts

    Why post prices? Still not sure why anyone would post prices for everyone to see. Why not just send a pm or an email? Dualkit and others have posted time and time again NOT to show prices, but it still goes on.

    Request For Quote- SERIOUS long-term vendor wanted

    Waste of time I hate that I wasted my time reading that extremely long b*tchfest. I've met these kinds in the past, and have shipped parts with no payments ever to come. Call me crazy, but I NEVER give net 30 day terms to unverified companies anymore. Hobbymachine, that definitely was not a...

    Request For Quote- Three simple milled parts

    HAHA! That's hilarious! I actually laughed out loud on that one. I really hate low ball bidding but that was a very funny (and true) reply. With the way things are, I guess I better laugh rather than cry.

    Even in BOLD, the Chinese companies still can't understand "USA companies only"!

    Quote for washers

    I hear you! I wish our machines were paid for. We're getting closer to being there. I have seen some AMAZING prices on here. I couldn't even type the word "noquote" for the price some people are doing jobs for on here! We're lucky (for now) that we have one loyal customer that likes our quality...

    Precision machining form China

    Ok, what was the purpose then? 6th and 7th street are not the same as US and China. Outsourcers are going to find out when the majority of manufacturing jobs are lost, there will not be money out there to buy aquarium rocks. I admit I still buy foreign products but I am trying to change.

    Tube Bending

    We are not local but have done quite a bit of mandrel bending over the past 10 years. I'm guessing this is 304 SS? Please see our website for some examples: www.eaglegage.com Thanks, Doug

    Quick Quote Needed New job 3 axis router.

    I think the reason you're having trouble is the format you have sent the RFQ in. I've tried things that weren't laid out and ended up recutting it 3 times. No offense, but I'm pretty sure a Nasa space station would be dimensioned.

    Bearing mounts (used to hold a 688 bearing).

    Yes, that tolerance was what I was worried about. I don't think I can hold .0006" on aluminum for 400 parts. Maybe I could on the (2) parts. .006" is much better. Thanks, Doug

    Me too Ken, I would like to apologize as well for my crude post. I've got to learn to keep an open mind. Thanks, Doug

    Moldmaker in Guangzhou China

    Take a joke, Ken. I'm working 60-70 hours a week and teaching my son the same work ethic. I don't need a lecture on my, or my son's, work ethic. I'm sure American workers thank you for the tip to "work harder, put out better product" and I know many lazy workers, but how are we going to...

    That pic is hilarious! I wouldn't mind a bowl of rice a day. That's more than my wife makes me! Just in case she reads this, I'm just kidding. Had to cover the bases.
