so, the schroers patent makes a hollow structure.
cip has many patents to address hollow forms.
it could take several patents to produce with precision, one part; for example coating, welding,thickness control, continuous processing, alloy choice, etc. liquidmetal/cip/apple are way ahead in diversity and specifics of their patents. nobody else is close, one patent may add a alternative idea but it is a pebble on the beach of patents.

who you going to go with? a one patent company? or one that has hundreds of patents and solutions?

what alloy will be chosen to make a bmg part, a cip patented alloy or a less desirable alloy? the vast amount of research, patents, and patented alloys puts the liquidmetal/cip/apple bundle vastly ahead in this technology (in my non-expert opinion).
