Someone here works in plastic injection/tooling. Who?
I remember reading, someone mentioned that's what he did. Plastic injection.. or tooling for it...
Who was that? One of my parts suppliers has suddenly changed to a craptastic part, after 17 years of supplying a good part. Looks liek the original tool may have been retooled...poorly.

You mean a celebrity plastic surgeon? They work on tools all the time.

If you're in the Seattle area, I can recommend Cascade Plastics in Tacoma. I worked with a gentleman named Mike Fudge, who was ridiculously helpful and friendly. I'd be happy to pass on his e-mail address if you'd like. The prices they quoted me for molds and parts were quite a bit lower than most of the others that I had spoken with, and the parts they were turning out looked fine for my purposes.
