You might look at your part and think, "There’s no way this small piece, which fits in the palm of my hand, costs more than $100." While that perspective is understandable, every part we produce is custom-made, requiring a unique setup for each manufacturing step, such as turning, cutting, milling, grinding, and heat treating. In some cases, we may need to reverse-engineer your part or create custom tooling. These factors contribute to our $4,750 minimum order value, which may increase depending on the complexity of your part.
Your next question might be "how do I get my part for $100?". If you look at the table below you will see how increasing the quantity will lower the price of your part. That's how it was originally made in order to sell it for under $100.
