Hey Jason,
Trying to get some parts made out of aluminum die cast. There are so many options national and international. Any tips for finding a good die casting company without spending out the door? Obviously you have found a good company that makes your squares.
PS: first time on a forum, forgive me if I did this wrong.
I have the same problem, we have a great product on hold for want of a cost effective casting.
Yes, everyone says, āBuy American Madeā and āKeep Your Business In America!ā butā¦ #1 finding anyone who actually DOES anything is hard as hell, and then finding anyone who actually has a real work ethic is even worse.
Does every generation weep for the future of our country? I think soā¦ we canāt survive as a nation of consumers without any large scale manufacturing base.
At risk of leaning political, we seem to have a problem with sharing our (American) wealth. Our big businesses seek the lowest cost solutions for production of goods without much thought as to how the overall economic system works and the winners and losers their decisions create. If instead our business endeavored to create fair exchange rather than profits for themselves weād probably grow slower and have more friends.
Businesses are in business to make money. And businesses are run by human beings.
Donāt think this is an āAmericanā problem. This happens all around the world. We are a victim of our own success - and we will be a victim of our own shortsightedness, as well. It is human nature.
Yes businesses need to make money. But watching the veritable demise of giants like Boeing Aircraft from seemingly following the motive of profit is disheartening. Most businesses work like Jason and Fireball in their early stages. It is always an option to try to do things a little bit cheaper and a little worse. In the short term profits go up and it looks like successā¦
What is an American problem is the power that America brings to doing business around the world. Not all countries can project that kind of economic power and there are consequences to its misuse. It appears that lesson is being offered in international markets. I hope the lesson is taken.
Sorry but you can share YOUR wealth with another country, I much prefer to keep my money in the USA.
Unfortunately itās often not so clear. Many U.S. companies make money (and employ Americans) while importing their goods from foreign sources. Donāt buy the foreign goods and you can put your neighbors out of work.
The world is not as simple as weād like it to be.
