What I want to know, is why does it cost $90 for a piece of 10mm plate with a few holes in it, even 12mm plate , plus 3 hi-tensile bolts.
I could easily make a similar plate, even thicker and out of bizoloy for probably $10 max in material cost, plus say $15 worth of bolts and washers.
Are these "bought" ones tested and stamped with a load rating?
No, I don't make them, and not trying to drum up work, but I tell ya what, I'm thinking of it!!
