Holy ****, Batman! $1k/wk? thud


We built a machine that uses two big air nailers to automatically shoot two
ballistic screws (shoot them in, unscrew them out - WAY cool) into "D"
shaped handles on grill brushes. The fasteners are expensive but cheaper
than labor to use conventional screws. I'll have to post pix of the
machine, it took a year for Roger to design and build. My staple-gun guy
loves me for fastener sales!


I checked the price of some on Amazone. $204 for 4k of them.

That's 10,000 brushes you make each month? Crikey! Your company is
larger than I thought, maam. tips hat
