Dennis,
not one word of your post is lost on me, other then the tequila
issue. I didn't mention anything of the sort because I thought it would be
so blatantly obvious. However there are the other people and we have seen
the posts here when somebody asks about vendors, there are those who seem to
go for the cheapest quoted price. Sometimes they are satisfied, some times I
am sure they are disappointed.
In our shop we have only two fabricators, our general run of the
mill shop who does very good work at a very reasonable price and our
specialty shop who is slower and much more expensive but does the stuff that
other shops say is impossible (read bleeding edge, these guys are out there
somewhere). I don't 'need' anymore vendors and these two serve us very well.
I am always on the look-out for someone in-between these two but it is
difficult to find and this server will definitely not help me or improve my
efficiency.
