We didn't develop this in a single year's time. Team 34 has been in business for 8 years now. If you start a "RP system" of common parts now and build on it from year to year, It actually saves you money but more importantly, time, down the road.
Other Points:
- We only manufacture the actual parts we used along with any specialty items.
- We know that many of these parts will be required before we know the game so manufacturing can begin on day one. (pillow blocks, bearing holders, corner brackets, etc)
- We can maintain an inventory of usefull "off the shelf" parts (bearings, fasteners, pulleys, gears) which minimizes lead time.
It works for us ....................
