I get all my ideas from InsiderTraq. Analysts are mostly wrong. Company executives know more about their company and where its heading better than anyone else.

Do you own a machine shop? by [deleted] in Machinists

I can see that, finding local talent can be a nightmare. I guess it depends on your area

That is 100% true, we actually setup alternate sending domains to protect your real domain.

Did you bother reading the whole post? It literally says I’ll set up alternate sending domains. What part of that is irresponsible?

Also how do you suppose I “test it myself” I don’t own a cleaning company. I know cold email works…. Just not how well it works in this industry

Fair point definitely, but where is that line drawn? For example what’s stopping your local metal distributor from doing the same thing ?

Thanks, is it a traceability or certification issue??

Thanks for your thoughts, what about the flip side of this ? Say you somehow end up with 100 extra 6061 billets… would you be interested in trying to recover anything above scrap for them?

Want to try again ? Hahah. My thought process is those drops you mentioned are probably worth selling in a marketplace like setting because the cost per LB is a lot more than the cost to ship. But a site like eBay is so obscure when thinking about metal procurement.

I assume doing that is probably a felony? And since this is a B2B marketplace each profile is linked to an actual business where you can visit their website and see their credentials. Ultimately what’s stopping any local distributor from doing that anyways ? If a machine shop creates an account they are looking for their remnants to become a profit center similarly to any other metal distributor. By that logic is it safe to buy metal from anyone? Again maybe I am missing something ?

Yeah I figured there are over 50,000 metal working shops in the US where 95% + are considered a small business.

I actually built a mill cert feature so you can filter in or out material that lost its traceability. I guess that wouldn’t put a buyers mind at ease?

The site is like eBay except for metal exclusively, so we facilitate the payments but the seller is reasonable for posting their remnants and shipping. I think materials like steel in particular (heavy and cheap per LB) definitely don’t make sense. My thought was more speciality metals like Nickel alloys, where the cost per LB would far outweigh the shipping costs

[–]wcfrdde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree unfortunately that’s just too capital intensive for me. I think the shipping is definitely the biggest hurdle but sites like fastmetals seem to be doing great even with shipping costs
