I am telling you, the sprockets and gears in SPI way out of line.

It is just silly to think that Martin Sprocket has all that high volume equipment cranking out sprockets like popcorn out of a carnival cart and I can go to a one off job shop and get substantially the same price as Small Parts Inc.

I don't begrudge SPI their money, I just think that as a rule, FIRST has some serious thinking to do.

Let me explain. I have a bunch of sources for cheaply and quickly getting stuff made that I need. Others don't. If I were in the "let's all make this thing as fair as possible" crowd (which I am not by the way), I would be thinking hard about the fairness of the current situation.
