To reiterate Sendkeys sentiments "Lowest bidder"
forgetting holes in that part is inexcusable

These types of situations are probably always going to exist.

All of us machine shops do more difficult work than the mechanic who touches our cars for $60/hr, yet we're all out to cut each other's throat and bid lower than the next guy. It's totally pathetic. I lost a job today which is very typical anymore. With raw material and powder coating, I had $13 a piece tied up. Then I added my paltry 22 minutes machining time and I offered my customer $34 each for 50 pieces. He tells me I'm "really high" because some shmuck offered him a price of $10 each. Of course, I can make parts in 3 weeks but shmuckshop needs 8 weeks for his bargain bin pricing. Don't misunderstand me, all shops are not like this but there are enough shmucks out there to piss me off on a weekly basis.

End rant.
