Re: Wheels: Metal or Plastic?
I'm not saying that machining doesn't have it's place, I am also not saying that injection molding is end-all, be-all solution. Many parts do have some machine work done to them, but milling something out a solid piece of billet is generally inefficient.
The wheels Peter Matteson shows are a good example of a wheel with much less machine time invested, and much less wasted material than machining from solid billet.
