Inquiry (采购产品): Rapid Prototyping Dear Sirs: I represent the Texas Inventors' Association and we are searching for rapid prototyping services to which we can refer our local inventors. First, do you work with independent inventors? If so, do you do the CAD drawings in-house or would you want the inventor to provide them to you? How much do you charge for rapid prototyping? Do you charge by the cubic inch of material used, or how exactly are your charges determined? Are there limits on the size a prototype can be? Generally, how long is the turnaround time? Would someone from your company be interested or available to attend the monthly meeting of the Texas Inventors' Association and be willing to answer questions about rapid prototyping? I look forward to hearing back from you. Sincerely, Mary Russell Sarao PS My sister, Barbara, and I have written two books about inventing in which we mention rapid prototyping as a cost effective alternative to injection molds for independent inventors. We have not personally known of a local resource for this service so this e-mail is our attempt to remedy this failure on our part. **** Hidden Message ***** Mary Sarao PO Box 251248 Plano, TX 75025 USA Company: Texas Inventors' Association Title: Vice-President Phone: 214 793 5088 E-mail: barb@asktheinventors.com **** Hidden Message ***** barb@asktheinventors.com
