Yep, all we need now is to see an order for the machines and some contracts so they can run 24/7.

Actually, we have very little knowledge of the Eontec machine revenue production capability, so I would say your figures are way off. Further, you have no historical data on the downtime per machine for set up, routine maintenace, etc. time for degating and a whole host of issues.

I wouldn't even begin to put my trust in your or anybody's so-called estimates, simply because LQMT does not have "real life" operating experience. Unless you call Miltner-Adams "fake news" real life experience.

Nothing for stocksgreen but just a general comment on the discussion... Why in the world are we trying to design the plant?...its plenty big for at least a few years. By the way perhaps the next capacity needs to be in...Kentucky or North Carolina. The lead time on buying a building is much less than getting machines.
Seems like we are polishing doorknobs.

Is there a way to eyeball the building on a day to day basis (other than to rely upon some of you guys driving there and looking though the window(s)) ??

"Each machine can make $3 million a year..."

That sounds about right. Steipp once said that they could be at, or very near to, break-even with 2 machines running 24/7; and when he said that the burn rate was close to $8 million a year.

So they have floor space... and machines. All they need now are customers. (Paul... are you listening?)
