Think about the tooling you will need for it, might not be as cheap as one would expect all things said and done. Also lord forbid you should have to have it shipped to you...

Also the capacity v.s. cost of producing parts with something like this might make you a few dollars an hour, after you pay for the machine at a few dollars and hour.

Don't forget no working on hardened parts, that takes a precision griner for it, oh yah and theres having things heat treated after you've made them...

Good tool for making "one of those for my car"
