Talbot will be where I whet my whistle building silly things in a cost inefficent way. In the near future I don't intend to do any Isen 'muck work'. As you say, you dont't get rich by doing work yourself, but by getting other people to do it for you. However, you don't have to outsource it, if anything that just adds another layer of profit skimming. We want to be a UK manufacturing business, no "Designed in the UK" big union jack bullshit. There is no reason why this is financially unviable, especially at the units we are selling, and it will only become more sensible the further down the shitter the UK economy plunges.
Plus one to paying up front. No barrier in my opinion.
I know this is a joke, but isn't that a choice between whether you make the frames yourself, or whether you spend your time building a business and brand and outsource manufacturing? I guess the latter doesn't float your boat, but did anyone get rich doing the former?
