Need quote for 50,100,500 the monthly usage is about 50
currently buying an off the shelf item and reworking them.
Want to get a price machined complete out of 7075 Aluminum.
Sorry about the drawing quality, but all this is just a v-belt pulley.
1.200 x .485 is a counterbore for a nut and the .669 diameter is a thru hole.
The groove in it is so the top of a 10mm wide V- belt sits close to flush by eye to the 2.300 diameter. All tolerances +/- .010 unless noted and dimensions are in inches. FYI in house cost is $9.42 plus 1/2 hour labor for
rework, plus tooling, looking to beat that price for those of you that ask for
a "target price". Bidding closes 9-26-08 or when I get 10 bids.

All I got, it is just a simple Microsoft Word doc, anyone with the Microsoft Office package should be able to open it, pretty popular I thought, sorry.

doesn't need a keyway or cross threaded hole, mounts with nut into
counterbore and bottoms on the back. Drawing is not exact to what the
end result was here but will work better. Figure aluminum is easier to machine
and will hold up fine for application.

Would expect a better print or sample if awarded P.O. thanks,........Bob

it was a mistake??? China & India were $6-$7.50.

$5, if you leave some in the chuck material is $2 each minimum, WTF, I am
about to quit trying. I could see $5 if we are casting 10,000 in the world's
cheapest aluminum, egad!

Wait till you see the parts, most of the jack legs cannot produce. We offered to buy some parts using some one elses quote and they would not do it. My money is just as green as the other guys, that shows something is not right.

Hey Fred,

What are you getting at? Are you saying the bidder is low-balling just to try to
raise the price once he gets the job, and the other bidders have been told they lost. Or customer will get garbage for $5.00 and not admit he screwed up. Or
option 3, buyer is lying about the $5, and going to come back later saying
Mr. $5.00 backed out and would anybody like to do them for $6.00. I have
been playing the internet bidding game and won 3 jobs out of about 50-100.
One customer did repeat and now just comes to me. I have been told my quality
has been amazing. Funny I would have thought those parts to be so simple
anyone should have made them look great, my guess these low bidders are of
piss poor quality. I can't explain my low win rate, I don't bid on jobs that don't
fit me or my machines well. I want to assume people posting jobs for bid are
honest. There are probably a few inventors shocked at what things cost to
make in low quantities, and a few buyers just checking prices on their current
vendors, maybe that is why the win rate seems so low for most of us?
 
I could be all of the above, the secret is in the prints!!!!!!!!! If they look like something from your first week in high school drafting (I don't think that is offered any more) then stay away. Any one that has the money to buy parts and not cry about the price is running at least a $4000 software program to generate prints. The only jobs we have gotten from the internet were, well, I don't think we have ever gotten any. Things are picking up we did have a more quotes in the past 2 weeks hopefully that will continue to go in a positive direction. Did you bid the light sabre guys parts??, you might want to check his eBay selling feedback for his company, it ain't good.

Hey Fred,

My situation violated your print tip, my only steady customer I fished off the internet doesn't even send prints. They order press pins, and plugs, just
sending e-mails to describe them, easy to run, and I get a good rate. Volume
not great but it makes the car payment. My largest customer I design the
parts for and I have no drawing software I use photo editing software to draw
in and I got kicked out of high school drafting to boot. The light sabre guy
never sent me any prints, guess you are special.
