Mrkim: it's a case of getting the balance right. Steel 1/2 as thick again is probably right for this tool, but 3/4 again is probably overkill and therefore overcosting. I have advised my employers before to increase quality (and therefore cost) to meet customers' demand. It all depends on the market you are targeting. Would you have bought the tool if it cost you 25-40% more than it did for instance? Even if you would have paid the extra would the majority of people who bought it been prepared to pay the extra?
