It's not always a question of honor. In a socialist/communist environment work (or the workers) own the tools and not each individual worker. As China and India come up in the world, it's going to be the way things are done. What keeps the small craftsmen in the west going is that no one can duplicate the work they do, at the price they do it. Eventually due to improved skill and more automation, they will. When it gets to the point that a designer in the US can email a design file to a shop in Hong Kong, or elsewhere in the PRC, and get a perfect model delivered by FedEx in a few days for 1/2 the cost of producing locally, those companies will close quickly. Look at what happened to the printing industry. Geoff. -- Geoffrey S.

Printing hell! You can "print" hard 3D prototypes now. But according to the dumbass, buying such a machine will surely take your company down. |
