Yeah, I've tried to rationalize that a number of times. If you don't consid=
er the labor and machinery costs, drilling holes into and making a big piec=
e of metal a smaller lighter piece of metal seems to be counter intuitive t=
o charge money for that. I mean, if you added the labor and machinery cost =
and made it BIGGER, it would seem more acceptable some how. =20
I'm thinking that the new advancements in 3D printers just might do that th=
ough - - - -  Right?
