        I hear you, but as an example, Japan is one of the only few that make one of the particular alloys we need.

        Do I want to support my local community? Yes.

        Does my local community have the answers to everything, generally? No.

        And we’re a niche company, no way us steel is going to go through the expense of building the process for us.
